The goal of this project was to transform an industrial space of just over 100m2 (interestingly located on the first floor) into a comfortable home with spacious rooms, maximizing natural light and ventilation.
This home is designed for a family of four, with two children aged 9 and 4. The layout is tailored to suit the family’s needs over the next 10-15 years.
This was not a conventional renovation, as it was necessary to close off gaps in the floor that connected to the ground floor of the building, modify window openings, reinforce thermal and acoustic insulation, and alter communal installations, among other tasks.
Additionally, it was necessary to obtain a permit for changing the use from industrial to residential from the municipal council. Sincro handled the permits, project planning, and execution of the work, including decoration and furnishing.
In the living room, a very open and versatile area has been created with modular sofas that can be moved easily, allowing for a large space to enjoy with family and friends. Two ceiling-mounted supports allow for hanging various accessories like swings and hammocks to make better use of the ample space.
The TV unit features a door with a finish identical to the synthetic parquet flooring, allowing the TV to be concealed and promoting family interaction without it being visible.
This space also includes the kitchen and dining area. The look has an industrial yet sober touch achieved through the use of black iron sheeting in several places, a wooden slat divider housing a small bar for informal meals, and the predominant use of white in the kitchen, which enhances brightness, visually enlarges the space, and blends well with the other materials in the day area.
The children’s bedrooms, approximately 12 m2 each, meet the current and future needs of the next stages of growth. The day area separates the children’s bedrooms from the master bedroom, providing adequate privacy for all occupants.
In contrast, the master bedroom is smaller but complemented by an independent dressing room and an additional auxiliary wardrobe.
Next to the master bedroom is a spacious bathroom White has been used in the furniture and coverings, a color that adds elegance and signifies cleanliness. Without windows, it helps reflect more light, making the bathroom appear brighter. The laundry area is hidden in a folding-door cabinet to remain unnoticed when not in use.
A notable feature is the effort to maximize light and ensure it reaches all areas. Large windows with solar control and glass allow light to enter both hallways and the bathroom, which are the least illuminated areas.
For doors and baseboards, a minimalist solution was sought using embedded sliding doors without architraves and flush baseboards, achieving an unusual purity of lines and avoiding the different levels typically found in such areas.
The entire apartment is painted with a water-based enamel finish, which can be washed in case of stains, ensuring better maintenance.
The home is controlled by a Z-wave home automation system that allows users to adjust lighting, monitor consumption, and interact with various programmed scenes.
Regarding climate control, it is possible to segment temperatures by zones, create independent schedules, and operate the system remotely from outside the home.
The flooring is large-plank synthetic parquet by Parador. Wall coverings in the rooms are by Vescom and Saint Honoré.
Intelligent climate control system by Airzone.
Aluminum joinery by K-line and curtains/screens by Serveis Tèxtils.
Custom furniture made of matte white laminate and dark wood-effect laminate by Tegar Mobel. Auxiliary furniture like tables, benches, chairs, stools, and lamps by Kave Home. Sofa from the Siros collection by Gamamobel. Articulating TV wall mount by Vogel’s.
Porcelain bathroom ceramics by Mirage, with AquaClean washbasins and bidet toilets by Geberit and shower enclosures by Lasser.
Appliances by Neff, Bosch, and Franke , and the kitchen countertop and backsplash by Neolith.
