This 90 m² apartment in Barcelona’s Eixample district is home to Bernat, an architect and co-founder of SIGLA Studio, his partner Liliana, and their dog, Hachi. Built in 1925, its location in the heart of the city has greatly influenced the renovation, guiding the designers to respect the building’s historical elements. The apartment reflects the essence of classic Eixample architecture, with high ceilings, interconnected spaces, and construction techniques typical of early 20th-century Barcelona. The traditional structure, composed of load-bearing walls, wooden beams, and Catalan ceramic vaults, has been preserved and reintegrated throughout.
