- Dark green alcove hues to visually enhance the existing brick. Previously painted black, but has now been beautifully sandblasted and coated in a clear matt lacquer brick varnish to help minimise airborne loose material. - Various bricks were chopped out and replaced prior to work due to age related deterioration. - Dining room floor was previously original orange squared quarry tiles and soil. A damp proof membrane was installed to help enhance and retain heat during winter, whilst also minimising the risk of damp progressing. - Dining room floor finish was silver-lined with matt lacquered engineered wood panels. Engineered wood flooring is more appropriate for older properties due to their damp proof lining fused into the wood panel. - a course of bricks were chopped out spanning the length of the dining room from the exterior due to previous damp present. An extra 2 courses of engineered blue brick were introduced due to the exterior slope of the driveway. This has so far seen the damp disappear which allowed the room to be re-plastered and painted. - Original features previously removed from dining room were reintroduced such as coving, plaster ceiling rose and original 4 panel moulded doors.

Nos encontramos ante una vivienda en la calle Verdi de geometría alargada y muy compartimentada. El reto está en conseguir que la luz que entra por la fachada principal y el patio de isla inunde todos los espacios de la vivienda que anteriormente quedaban oscuros. Para acabar de hacer diáfano el espacio, hay que buscar una solución de carpintería que cierre la terraza, pero que permita dejar el espacio abierto si se desea. Por eso planteamos una carpintería de tres hojas que se pliegan sobre ellas mismas y que al abrirse, permiten colocar la mesa del comedor extensible y poder reunirse un buen grupo de gente en el fresco exterior, ya que las guías inferiores están empotradas en el pavimento.

Brick veneer wall. Imagine what the original wall looked like before installing brick veneer over it. On this project, the homeowner wanted something more appealing than just a regular drywall. When she contacted us, we scheduled a meeting where we presented her with multiple options. However, when we look into the fact that she wanted something light weight to go over the dry wall, we thought an antique brick wall would be her best choice. However, most antique bricks are plain red and not the color she had envisioned for beautiful living room. Luckily, we found this 200year old salvaged handmade bricks. Which turned out to be the perfect color for her living room. These bricks came in full size and weighed quite a bit. So, in order to install them on drywall, we had to reduce the thickness by cutting them to half an inch. And in the cause cutting them, many did break. Since imperfection is core to the beauty in this kind of work, we were able to use all the broken bricks. Hench that stunningly beautiful wall. Lastly, it’s important to note that, this rustic look would not have been possible without the right color of mortar. Had these bricks been on the original plantation house, they would have had that creamy lime look. However since you can’t find pure lime in the market, we had to fake the color of mortar to depick the original look.

El espacio de comedor y salón aprovecha toda la altura hasta la cubierta de madera, dejándola vista. La estufa de pellets tiene dos conductos que se llevan a las dos habitaciones de la vivienda por el falso techo, y se instala entre muros de ladrillo visto para aprovechar su inercia térmica y que acumulen el calor.

Puesta a punto de un piso en el centro de Barcelona. Los cambios se basaron en pintura, cambio de pavimentos, cambios de luminarias y enchufes, y decoración. El pavimento escogido fue porcelánico en lamas acabado madera en tono medio. Para darle más calidez y que en invierno el suelo no esté frío se complementó con alfombras de pelo suave, largo medio en tono natural. Al ser los textiles muy importantes se colocaron cortinas de lino beige, y la ropa de cama en color blanco. el mobiliario se escogió en su gran mayoría de madera. El punto final se lo llevan los marcos de fotos y gran espejo en el comedor. El cambio de look de cocina se consiguió con la pintura del techo, pintar la cenefa por encima del azulejo, pintar los tubos que quedaban a la vista, cambiar la iluminación y utilizar cortinas de lino para tapar las zonas abiertas
