CASA GIL
Casa Gil project consists in the restoration of what used to be a farmer’s house in Vilaür, Alt Empordà. It is born from the will of acknowledging the natural beauty of the environment that surrounds the house. The main existing volume of the pre-existing building and its façade remain untouched. The architecture intervention is very neutral, tailored to the clients' preferences and needs, allowing the landscape to be the main focus of the project. A farm building nearby has been preserved as an integral part of the surroundings, serving as a reminder of the property's history. The garden includes a 22-meter pool inspired by the original "bassas" and "safreigs" of Mediterranean rural areas, designed to satisfy the family's passion for swimming. The domestic design of the interiors consists of a free plan module for daytime activities, connected to the garden through an open porch, and a two-story night area, all thoughtfully arranged to frame the natural surroundings.
