Vivienda Sant Cugat

House Sant Cugat

Mireia Masdeu Studio as Architects

The initial challenge of the project was to maximize natural light giving more continuity to the spaces. The kitchen was opened to the living room with the possibility of being able to close and work on the distribution of the bedroom suite, which due to its location reduced the possibility of extending the living room.

The partitions dividing the kitchen, the living room and the bedroom suite were removed. In their place, doors and interior windows made of black steel and glass were installed, providing visual lightness. The rest of the elements, such as lamps and mirrors, were chosen in black, contrasting with natural materials such as the quercus oak wood of the furniture and the stone-finished countertops
