Renovation flat 50m2 in San Esteban de Pravia, Spain by David Olmos ArquitectosMarch 27th, 2019 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: David Olmos Arquitectos In the exclusive whereabouts of Nalón river mouth, the flat’s location was back-in-the-times house of marine village San Esteban de Pravia’s harbour workers, a well-known context within Asturias region. This beautiful spot was recently declared heritage site of historical and industrial interest. We took up a quite partitioned 52m2 flat where rooms had significantly small spaces and rather ramdom layout. The lack of functional criteria was obvious.  Image Courtesy © Luis Díaz Díaz

With the clear aim of empowering the existent elements, we gravitated towards the building’s concrete structure from which a core frame was developed. This frame not only articulated both day zone and night zone but also offered storage space to match owners’ needs.

The latter shared furniture with living room to which served, and so creating a unifying space was major purpose to this área.

Furniture could not be other than a singularly designed one, an option that would bridge architecture and decoration in subtle fashion. The earthly quality of the existing elements gives way to outstanding features of the like of oak tree wood, visible concrete and inspiring whiteness. This array of details is as much structural elements as it is decorative ones.
