The house is conceived as a singular architectural piece that engages in dialogue with its immediate surroundings in the exclusive neighbourhood of Pedralbes. From the earliest stages of the project, the urban context and the plot typology have been decisive factors, acting as conditions that, rather than limiting the design, have driven a precise and ambitious architectural solution.

With the aim of achieving the maximum permitted urban development, the project proposes a stepped volumetric composition that adapts to the topography and enhances views, privacy and the relationship with the landscape. The resulting architecture is bold and expressive, yet at the same time restrained and timeless, based on a careful composition of horizontal planes, generous cantilevers and a contemporary material palette that conveys balance and permanence.

The constant pursuit of spatial generosity is expressed through double-height spaces, large glazed surfaces and a fluid continuity between interior and exterior. The interiors open onto generous terraces and landscaped areas, where water and vegetation are integrated as fundamental elements of the project, reinforcing a sense of wellbeing and exclusivity.

In terms of performance, the house meets the highest standards of comfort, building services and energy efficiency. It incorporates advanced climate control, solar control and insulation systems, as well as state-of-the-art home automation solutions that allow intelligent and personalised management of the home. All of this ensures a residential experience of the highest level, where design, technology and construction quality converge in a home conceived to be enjoyed without compromise.

The project is located in the historic centre of Sabadell, on a party-wall plot with a double-depth layout, a condition that shapes both the spatial organisation and the relationships between the different areas of the house. Based on a detailed study of the programme and the family’s everyday dynamics, the proposal aims to create generous, flexible and interconnected spaces, capable of adapting to different ways of living throughout the day and across the seasons.

The house is organised vertically, with a clear distinction between day and night areas, while introducing strategies of spatial continuity that encourage visual and functional relationships between levels. The daytime living area unfolds across two storeys, creating an intermediate multipurpose space between the garage and the rear garden. This area acts as a natural extension of the interior during the summer months, allowing the enjoyment of outdoor space without compromising comfort or privacy, and functioning as a key transitional element between the domestic realm and the open air.

One of the most representative features of the project is the double-height space above the living area, which enhances the sense of spaciousness and allows natural light to penetrate deep into the interior, while establishing direct visual connections between the different floors. This strategy reinforces the unified perception of the house and encourages interaction among family members, turning the central void into the true heart of the project.

From a material perspective, a restrained and coherent palette has been chosen to reinforce the contemporary yet timeless character of the proposal. Microcement is used as a unifying element throughout the house, providing continuity, neutrality and a homogeneous spatial reading. On the first two floors, microcement is combined with dark-stained oak, creating a more contained atmosphere associated with areas of greater activity. On the upper floors, primarily dedicated to rest, natural oak introduces a greater sense of warmth and lightness, accompanying the transition towards more intimate spaces.

The architectural language is based on formal clarity, clean lines and the integration of discreet construction solutions, where lighting, built-in furniture and storage systems are conceived as an integral part of the architectural project itself. The result is a modern, minimalist and durable home that engages with the historic urban context through restraint and precision, while simultaneously offering a functional, bright domestic space adapted to the real needs of the family who inhabits it.

The intervention is grounded in a deep respect for the original architecture of Josep Lluís Sert, understood not only as a built form but as a way of living. The renovation of the Blajot House (1978–1979) has been approached through a careful reading of its spatial logic, its relationship with the site, and its essential materiality.

The project restores the original values of the house—structural clarity, constructive restraint, and the dialogue between interior and exterior—while adapting them to contemporary requirements of comfort, efficiency, and use, without altering its identity or architectural language.

Designed for a new family, the extension does not compete with the original building but rather accompanies it. It is integrated through material continuity, proportion, and scale, reinterpreting Sert’s principles with a restrained and coherent language. More than an addition, the intervention seeks a balance between past and present, where the new is clearly recognisable without disrupting the unity of the whole.

The project understands rehabilitation as an exercise in precision and responsibility: updating without distorting, intervening without imposing, and extending the life of a work while keeping its underlying philosophy intact.

Masia Can Pi is a listed building dating from the 14th century in Esplugues del Llobregat, an example of traditional Catalan architecture, with a basilica floor plan, cellar and stables. The intervention proposes a transformation that respects its historical identity, adapting it to a new use as a contemporary urban villa. The project has been designed as a balance between the preservation of the legacy and innovation in contemporary living.

A timeless, sober and elegant aesthetic has been chosen. Noble materials like natural stone, solid wood or lime stucco are integrated with a refined formal language, where each architectural element is expressed with honesty. The design avoids the superfluous, focusing on authenticity, calm and attention to detail.

The interior redistribution maximises visual and physical fluidity between rooms. Unnecessary partitions have been eliminated, generating open, luminous and connected spaces. The original scale is preserved, but reinterpreted with modern comfort criteria.

The interior garden of this house is a perfect oasis. Water, vegetation and light combine in it to create a feeling of calm, privacy and privilege which is extended to the rest of the house. The effect produced in the garden is echoed thanks to the presence of generously-sized flown porches that open onto this space and create continuity between the interior and the exterior, isolating it from its surroundings. It does not matter then that, in certain areas, the surroundings are aggressive from the urban point of view: behind the door you will find the tranquility of your own Eden.

The staircase in this building, treated as a decorative element, is also the axis around which this project with a sculptural vocation is articulated. The owner family proposed a very specific functional program and, since the plot did not offer special conditions, this vertical element became the point around which a unique game of proportions, volumes and materials developed.

Rooted in a dialogue between light and texture, the home balances privacy and openness while integrating seamlessly with its natural surroundings. At the heart of the project are two courtyards that flood the interiors with natural light and create a continuous flow between indoor and outdoor spaces. The lower level, anchored in dark wood tones, is dedicated to communal living, where the kitchen, dining area, study, and living room flow effortlessly into each other and the courtyards. Upstairs, the private spaces are carefully arranged around a central hallway, which transitions into the walk-in closet of the master suite, connecting the vanity, terrace, bathroom, and bedroom.

Located in a residential area of Valldoreix, this house stands in a sober response to a discreet natural and urban landscape. The project is integrated through an architecture that seeks a balance between formal abstraction and Mediterranean sensibility, in a clear heritage of the work of Josep Lluís Sert, particularly in his way of revisiting rationalism with values of climate, light and everyday life.

The house is developed mainly on a single floor, confirming its horizontal and domestic character. All the functional spaces are located on the ground floor: day area (living room, dining room, kitchen), private area (bedrooms, bathrooms) and service areas. On the first floor, for a more introspective and reduced use, there is an independent studio, conceived as a space for seclusion with open views and zenithal light, separated from the rest of the programme to favour concentration.

Mediterranean light is one of the main materials. Through controlled openings, overhangs and patios, spaces are generated where shade becomes an architectural element. The result is an atmosphere of calm, where the contrasts between full and empty, light and mass, build a balanced sensory experience.

Orientation, volumetric compactness, solar filters and the use of native vegetation are passive strategies that reduces energy demand. The house is conceived from climatic common sense rather than from visible technology.

Three vibrant and harmonious volumes that flow into each other; a game of composition generates different perspectives in the garden; materials that set the colour palette of stone and white; and a layout staggered over different levels to fluently and efficiently communicate the diverse uses. That is how we created this project for a musician who wanted an inspiring home complete with recording studio. Pure rhythm.
The recording studio is situated in one of the blocks, an impressive six-metre high cube that only opens onto the garden. On the opposite side is the more intimate area, and, connecting the two, we have the central block which comprises the thoroughfare and common area.

On an acoustic level, the studio has been designed under the Non-Environment philosophy in which an average reverberation time of 0.13 seconds has been obtained, balanced over the entire frequency range, with which a neutral listening is achieved thanks to the combination of the speakers with the room.

The recording room was built with the aim of having controlled acoustics but with a natural brightness achieved thanks to the first reflections generated by the slot slats made of oak wood.

The large windows and the viewfinder overlooking the control room make all the rooms very bright, creating a pleasant atmosphere for working inside.

A grand, sculptured beam runs through the home and frames the scenery. This structural element is the aesthetic key to making this project possible, inspired by nature, it draws the surroundings in and captures your attention.
Inspiration for this project was born directly from the surroundings, close to the sea. From this, we see the aesthetic approach, great flights that unfold towards the horizon and high, glass spaces seeking to defy gravity. Each of the elements speaks of the privilege of infinity.
The beam that envelopes the building is the resource that makes all of this possible and furthermore, one that makes the domestic areas appear on a familiar scale despite their grand dimensions. It also becomes a frame that, as Ortega and Gasset said, draws in the gaze to pour it into the painting, which is, in itself, infinity.

From the street, we see a subtle and elegant curve that makes an impact. Concrete without openings. Complete privacy. It’s a curtain behind which all the magic of this project is hidden, located in one of the most beautiful parts of Catalonia.
The space is privileged. The same house that shies away from the street, opens up inside to light and scenery, cascading down the hillside and making an interior space that speaks its own language: concrete contrasted with black and oak wood, which is how it connects intimately with its surroundings.
In the garden, dry stone and lush vegetation take centre stage, reinforcing the relationship between the hillside and the home.

The stone walls guide the path of light and gaze in this house. Their presence speaks volumes and gives the project a sense of organisation. And, despite their solidity, as they are located on a transversal axis, these walls give up all the prominence to the intangible: they allow the sun to enter the interior from the south and draw in your towards the north, which offers some fabulous views over the Collserola valley. Sun, pines and oaks. The Mediterranean environment becomes part of the house.
The relationship between the house and its surroundings is underlined by the materials and colours used. The stone, the earthy tones and the off-white make the construction blend in with the surroundings and take root with the mountain that houses it.

The horizon is everything in this plot. It is a place dominated by horizontal lines with an extraordinary view over the Mediterranean. Therefore, the project developed for this location seeks the magic of weightlessness. To achieve this, the design contemplates two volumes superimposed and displaced from each other that leave the ground floor open and turn the upper area into a floating construction that looks into infinity and closes on the north facade. The use of glass, cantilevers and colors complete this poetic play of light and shadow, closed and open, matter and emptiness.

Blur the boundaries; play with closed and open spaces. This was the proposal to build a plot with an exceptional location and impressive views. The resulting project is a dialogue between the building and the landscape. On this basis, the house takes inside floors and walls typical of the exteriors of the area; That is why it is open and draws angles so that the view of the sea penetrates the house. The Mediterranean is integrated into the daily life of the family that inhabits this home.

Creating sculptural architecture that includes the warmth of a home is a challenge. And this project, with its large dimensions, its ambition and its location dominating all of Barcelona, ​​ran the risk of becoming a showhome worthy of a photo shoot, but not to live in. To give it visual rhythm, everything superfluous was eliminated and the house was divided into three volumes. And to provide the necessary balance, all the unique elements, including the staircase, were accumulated in a central module, wrapped in copper. In this way, more subtlety is achieved in the rest of the building, using austere masonry walls on the outside and warm materials on the inside.

Merge the building with the environment and let the mountain enter the home so that the whole family can live with it. That is the premise for this construction. For this reason, stone and wood are protagonists even on the façade. Just like its toasted colours, which are constantly reminiscent of the old holm oak that once populated the area. Outside, the rock of the mountain can be seen in gardens located at different heights and that makes the natural environment embrace the building.

The triangular shape of the plot with sea views and the curved arrangement conditions this residential project. From the street, solid volumes are the protagonists that are lightened with the use of markedly vertical openings, open like fissures. Inwards, the house opens generously to enjoy the Mediterranean and the common spaces. In them, the light is filtered with adjustable wooden slats and it is this light that becomes the key feature.
