AN OLIVE GREEN GLAZED CERAMIC TILE ACTS AS A HEADBOARD
The master bedroom incorporates a modernist dresser and headboard that is framed by a backlit volume clad in traditional small-scale olive green Decocer ceramics . Also in the bathrooms , the intermediate spaces and on the wall of an elevated outdoor patio , small-size ceramics from the same firm are used . These are pieces with a marked glaze inspired by traditional and time-honored ceramics .
The design provides multifunctional spaces , minimizes passage areas , optimizes the available surface and allows natural light to enter . It is a project that brings out the potential of the essence of the pre-existing with honesty and coherence . In addition , it is designed to provide calm and well-being to those who live there .
The house is developed around three large cores : the night area , the day area and the outdoor space . The floor plan is elongated rectangular and has a usable area of almost 80 m2 connected to a peculiar , elevated patio of another 25 sqm . Originally the house was subdivided into 8 spaces , with only one bathroom and a small kitchen .
The old solid brick that was covered by a layer of plaster is brought to light , as well as the traditional ceilings are restored to become a protagonist element through indirect lighting .
All the doors , as well as the decorative window that separates the living room from the kitchen , are original elements that have been stripped and finished only with natural wax .
