Duplex in Gracia

HOME FOR A PHILOSOPHER AND A MUSIC TEACHER

A sculptural staircase in bleached oak unites the two floors and encompasses a range of further uses, such as display cases, study area and wardrobe.

The ground floor is a loft-like space which includes the kitchen / dining room, living and a music room which can be acoustically closed off by oak sliding doors hidden in the staircase.

The original ceilings with Catalan vaults were discovered underneath modern false ceilings, and brought back. Walls are finished in smoothly rendered clay with a cloudy effect. Consistent use of materials creates a feeling of space.
