Project • By Funcionable arquitectura • Private Houses
Eternal house. Made of earth, lime, cork and wood
One of the two owners, a descendant of a family of potters and ceramists who preserved this tradition in the construction stage, proposed to build their house with the working material of their ancestors: clay and craftwork. The location of the site, next to the family ceramic workshop, facilitated the production of the adobes, updated in modern compressed earth blocks (CEB). The earth would be extracted from the usual location available in the area, located in the nearby municipalities of Puente del Arzobispo and Alcolea de Tajo. They would produce the blocks to build their own walls.

MAUI POOL EDGE
In contrast to the skimmer system, the trend towards overflowing pools as a spa/wellness imitation has gained momentum in recent years. In these pools the water overflows the edge and generates the effect of a continuous floor and pool, without cuts, a complete integration.
This style has always been more common in hotel and wellness centre projects but a few years ago it started to become fashionable in private homes, why not have the luxury of a hotel in your own home?
The swimming pool and its surroundings should be a space where safety and comfort are paramount. The surrounding floor must be non-slip and walkable barefoot or with wet feet, so both our pool coping edging and our ceramic drainage gratings have non-slip properties, which... More

Its versatility and easy attachment make it perfect for any pool, whether it is a new construction or a refurbishment, while its anti-slip characteristic makes it safe for the whole family, preventing possible slips.

STROMBOLI COLLECTION
The modern and smooth design of this stone is perfect for terraces with straight and architectural lines.

It is available for indoors and outdoors, with Cerámica Mayor's characteristic anti-slip, with which the project will be completely ver... More
Project • By Mosa • Apartments
Alto Apartments
“We put a lot of thought into our projects, focusing on a sense of space instead of individual taste. Because we come from architectural backgrounds, this influences our methodology and provides us with the technical ability to realise our design. We try to create synergy between exterior and interior. Working closely with the architects on this project, we designed the apartments from inside out, with functional and spatial needs influencing the external form of the building. This is how you get coherent designs that stand the test of time.” Speaking is Vesna Aksentijevic of interior design company FLINT, which is based in London, UK. She talks about FLINT’s work as interior designers for the apartments and entrance of Alto in Wembley Park... More
