Modern Villa in Spain: An Innovative Project with Fiberdeck® WEO® cladding
I'm delighted to share with you the details of an exciting architectural project we recently completed in Spain. Located in Vilablareix, this modern villa is the result of a creative collaboration between architects Juanjo Ojeda and Miguel Gámez ofesbÓs Estudio de Arquitectura. Completed in June 2021, it embodies both the vision of a dynamic family and the benefits of innovative building materials such as Fiberdeck® WEO® cladding.
A Dream Come True
This project came about thanks to the determination of a family of five. Previously living in an old apartment in the heart of Girona, the imminent arrival of their third child motivated them to take the plunge and build their dream home. They chose a plot of land in the peaceful village of Vilablareix, a strategic location offering fast connections to Girona, Barcelona (one hour away), and the sea.
Architect's testimonial
Architects Juanjo Ojeda and Miguel Gámez of esbÓs Estudio de Arquitectura shared their experience of the villa's design and choice of materials:
"Our decision to install Fiberdeck WEO® cladding was motivated by its similar appearance to wood while offering undeniable advantages: lower cost and zero maintenance. These assets guarantee high durability, which was a decisive factor in our choice."
WEO® cladding enabled the architects to meet the aesthetic requirements of the project, while respecting practical criteria.Juanjo Ojedaalso stresses the importance of the material's ease of installation and design:
"WEO® cladding allowed us to incorporate a touch of warmth into the overall design of the villa, which features a pure white volume punctuated by glass and dark aluminum openings. This material, used at strategic points, created perfect harmony in the busiest living spaces."
The choice of Fiberdeck® WEO® cladding One of the most remarkable aspects of this villa is the use of Fiberdeck® WEO® cladding. This material was selected not only for its modern aesthetics, but also for its exceptional technical performance. As Juanjo Ojedamentioned:
"The natural wood appearance of WEO® contributes strongly to the villa's final aesthetic. Its semi-jointed design generates a subtle play of light and shadow on the surface, adding extra depth and texture to the façade."
WEO® cladding offers several significant advantages over traditional wood:
- Durability: Unlike natural wood, WEO® cladding is extremely resistant to weather, UV, and biological attack such as insects and fungi.
- Low maintenance: WEO® does not warp, crack or turn gray over time. This is a major advantage for homeowners.
- Modern aesthetics: With its natural appearance and elegant finish, it blends perfectly with contemporary architecture.
- Respect for the environment: WEO® is made from recycled composite materials, making it a more sustainable choice.
This villa in Vilablareix is more than just a house; it reflects a bold vision combined with cutting-edge materials. Thanks to collaboration with architects such asJuanjo Ojeda and Miguel Gámez, and the use of innovative materials such as WEO® cladding, this house embodies modernity, sustainability and elegance. As the architect points out:
"Feedback from our customers has been extremely positive. WEO® cladding not only brings unique aesthetics, but also provides peace of mind thanks to its robustness and ease of maintenance."
If you're considering construction or renovation, choosing the right materials, like WEO® siding, could be the key to realizing your own architectural dreams.
