Modern Day Barcelona residence with diverse Geometry

If we do not know that this house is located "" in Barcelona; s Vallvidrera residential area, we could think that somewhere. on the Mediterranean coast, overlooking the sea easily The Mediterranean atmosphere is at the all-white, seemingly without a roof outside, geology and slope of the land. To get a maximum interior space, YlaB Architectos have designed the property as a compact 3-volume level. The varied geometry of residence begins from a cube, each face has divided into 4 areas. Then how. In a 3-dimensional building game, these facets were pushed and pulled into a plurality of directions in order to give the final geometry of the house The orientation of the surfaces do not randomly, to bring them on the one hand the objective of most of natural light and views of the city, and to produce on the other side the privacy of the owners. Since the plot is very modest and positioned in a crowded neighborhood that privacy was a major factor influencing the design of the property. The upper surfaces of the cube were pushed up to the roofing type. The reality that handles the roof the same as the rest of the house, in matt white, provides an excellent unit with the architecture. In addition, the fixed windows and the white perforated aluminum shutters are perfectly aligned with the facades, in an impeccable geometry. The primary entrance is on the middle level, where the space divided by a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and dining areas. The kitchen and dining facilities benefit from a double height ceiling, supported by a wood-paneled wall. On the upper floor, on the ceiling and behind the paneled wall there is the master bedroom and bathroom. The semi-buried reduced level of floor space, the living room and an independent studio, both with direct access from the garden.

The sidewalks in multicolored bar - a common regional stone - follow the bio-slopes of the terrain. The size of the stone is larger on the flatter surfaces and smaller and irregular on the steeper ones.

The perforated shutters allow light to come, but to protect the privacy of the owners at the same time.

The floors, bathrooms and staircases are covered in bright Capri stone, and the interior walls all know how the outdoors.

The only exception to white is generated for the double height center wall, the paneled with tinted elm wood. This structure is also used to conceal doors and kitchen cupboards.

The kitchen counters are as much as achievable is integrated, so that only the stove, sink and countertop opened. The tinted elm wood island has a dual role as a breakfast counter.

The perforated Corten steel fence that protects the ownership of the acceptance side of the property matches the reddish shades of the roadway.
