Renovation and extension of the century-old Can Mallorquí farmhouse, located in an exceptional location on the outskirts of Girona.
The proposal consists of the renovation of the upper floor and the construction of a new attached access to the farmhouse. In this new double-space volume, the suspended metal staircase is designed that allows access to the upper floor.
The intervention focuses on this space and its entire upper floor. It enjoys a large central nave that houses the kitchen, dining room and living room under a spacious wooden beamed ceiling. From there arise two wings that house the studio, where clients work daily, the bedrooms and the bathrooms.
The rehabilitation of existing skins and materials is carried out with the care that the space requires. The native stone walls are stripped and the necessary steps are opened to connect the spaces. The wooden ceilings, carpentry and classic long thin bricks flooring are restored. In the most private areas, wood is chosen as noble flooring and colors with natural and warm colors such as terracotta are opted for.
The route along the farmhouse seeks to reinforce emotions, between what is new and what already existed. A combination that, together with the styling and furnishing proposal, make this farmhouse a space with great personality.
The project has been carried out with the collaboration of Lara Pujol.
