The materials used in each of the spaces provide different sensations either for their warmth (such as wood and bronze mirror) or their spaciousness and elegance (such as golden steel, marble, and wood). It is important to highlight the importance of the correct management of light and shadow, giving the space different scenarios.

When starting a tour of the spaces of the apartment, the architecture and its details challenge you to find the different accesses and exits through camouflaged doors and mirrors on the walls.

One of the spaces with the longest journey is the social area, where, within all its great details, between walls, light and shadow on come the wings of an angel and the mirror as a monolith reflecting what exists and what is beyond life.
