refurbishment

On a narrow, elongated plot, this former railway workers’ house, fully renovated, and its garden-side extension are created around a central patio, which opens up and enhances the rear façade. The patio preserves the occupants’ privacy while allowing optimal natural light into every room. The new patio draws light deep into each room and shields daily life from view.

The estate “Las Torres” was commissioned in the 1870s by the ancestors of the current owner. Originally built as a summer residence, it was later divided into three separate units and briefly used as a school during the Spanish Civil War. Our project has involved the renovation of one of the units, which was in a state of disrepair and had suffered several alterations that significantly damaged its original design.

GuestHouse50 is a townhouse with a special atmosphere and exceptional communal areas. The transformed and restored historic townhouse proves how easily privacy and community can coexist. The single-family terraced house, built in 1880, to which an extension with a passageway was added in the 1920s, was used as a home with a decoration shop and an atelier where they designed and produced stuccos and hand-painted wallpapers.

This project involves the renovation of an old building into a vacation destination. The original building, featuring a concrete frame, is nestled within a dense coastal forest in northern China, surrounded by a serene and secluded natural landscape. Just a few hundred meters beyond the forest lies the vast sea. Originally, the building stretched 100 meters along the edge of an acacia forest, with beautiful waterscapes on both the south and east sides. However, its interior design included a single-sided corridor, resulting in long and somewhat redundant hallway spaces. The facade was overly closed off, fragmented by narrow Tuscan-style vertical strip windows that obscured the scenic rolling landscape around it, ultimately isolating the building from its natural surroundings.

The project involves the complete renovation of a Neustadt building dating from the late 19th century. On the street side, the Vosges sandstone and brickwork will be cleaned and restored to their original appearance.
