C110 | LUZ, NATURALEZA Y QUIETUD

It is a good starting point for our work: we only have to enhance them, make them the absolute protagonists of our intervention.

Logement La Pagoda

We’re in the Pla del Real district of Valencia, a privileged setting surrounded to the south by the former river bed —today the Turia Gardens— and to the west by the Monforte gardens and the Jardines del Real or Viveros park.  Germán Cabo The home is in La Pagoda no less, a building famous in the city for its history and architecture. Inspired by traditional Japanese architecture, it was built by architects Antonio Escario, José Vives and José Antonio Vidala in the early 1960s over the ruins of the former Ripalda Palace and soon became an icon of the city of Valencia.
