The dining room stairs allow the segregation of uses without losing spatial continuity with the kitchen. Finally, located to the north, we find the bedrooms in the background, ensuring their privacy.
Wood is the star of this house, with herringbone parquet, slats, oak paneling, and slatted triangles. In addition, the light tones and the careful decoration create the desired conditions to inhabit it.

Description of project by Tangram
Despite its excellent location and enviable views of the city, different circumstances had caused this property to fall into disuse over time. However, as if it were a fairy tale, a family fell in love with it, bought it and saw beyond what was in front of them and everything changed.
It was a completely open-plan space, with ample possibilities, unbeatable views and a complex geometry of the section that would ultimately end up being the opportunity and hallmark of the project.
The proposal is simple and direct, access is via a generous vestibule that, perfectly located in the central area of the dwelling, gives access to the main spaces. The living room and dining room are positioned at the front, in what appears to be their natural place, as a continuity of both terraces, enjoying the unbeatable vistas and making the most of the opportunities provided by an irregular roof with multi-pitched slopes. Through a delicate staircase the dining area extends towards the kitchen, in an open relationship but clearly differentiated by means of the staircase itself and the appreciable change in the scale and materiality of the spaces that adapt to the use they contain. To the north and in the background, the bedrooms are located in a serial manner, ensuring their privacy with regard to the rest of the dwelling.
The herringbone parquet, the slats, the natural oak panelling and the geometry of the roof with slatted triangles make wood the main material of this refurbishment, which, in harmony with the rest of the finishes in neutral tones and a careful decoration, create a pleasant atmosphere for living.
