The Brief
The project involves the comprehensive renovation of a single-family home located on the slopes of Collserola, with unobstructed views of the city of Barcelona. The commission is based on a comprehensive program that must be realized within a limited floor area, requiring a particularly precise approach in terms of layout, efficient use of space, and the relationship between interior and exterior.
The goal is to transform the house into a functional and comfortable home, capable of meeting contemporary needs without losing its connection to the natural surroundings and the spectacular views offered by its location.
Project Scope
The project is based on a strategy of spatial optimization, in which every square meter is designed to serve multiple functions without sacrificing clarity or fluidity. The interior architecture is organized to maximize natural light and direct views toward the landscape, strengthening the relationship between the home and its immediate surroundings.
The spaces are arranged in a compact and efficient manner, prioritizing clear circulation paths and a balanced layout that accommodates the extensive program of requirements. Warm materials, custom furniture solutions, and carefully planned lighting contribute to creating a serene and homey atmosphere, compensating for the limited floor area.
The result is a thoughtfully renovated home where architecture and interior design work together to create a bright, functional space that is fully integrated into the hillside of Collserola.
A home designed to make the most of the scenery and natural light.
Ujo+partners was responsible for the design, technical project development, manufacturing, and installation of the furniture, as well as for the overall coordination, quality control, and commissioning of the project.
