Before and after: Mansan House

Its owners were looking for the integral reform of the Mansan house: a house located just 8 kilometers from the great city of Barcelona. An intervention that would allow them to expand the useful meters of their home, as well as provide new, more practical and efficient solutions to each room. For this reason, in our project on plans different changes arose to improve the functionality of the space, without forgetting the decoration and coherence in the aesthetic set of the house.

These modifications implied comprehensive reforms both externally and internally. In fact, our intervention in Mansan was based on an extension of useful meters and the contribution of more practical solutions.

One of them was the decision to cover some areas of the terrace of its upper level, to incorporate them into the script of the house. We thus take advantage of the available space to create new, wider and more comfortable rooms.

Another important modification was carried out on the main floor. In this case, meters of the porch were incorporated to create a bright office, which is divided from the rest of the room with tinted glass. A separating element that exudes elegance and perfectly separates both environments.

We also replaced the original plaster staircase with a more modern and elegant one. This includes a railing with sinuous curves and improved verticality.

In the kitchen, the owners wanted a clean and functional room. Therefore, we reduce and order the elements to obtain a more passable space. The great attraction of the room is the island, which combines with a large side wardrobe.

However, not all the spaces were renovated. Some original elements of the house were kept, as was the case with the façade. Although, to improve its condition, a single layer of continuous application was applied. Something that allowed us to merge new and original elements.
