DavidThe small dimensions and the limited budget for the reform of this apartment in Barcelona have been a stimulating challenge for the Coblonal Interiorismo team, which has designed an extremely cozy home. With only 42 m², this old apartment for rent it looks completely renovated thanks to a redistribution of space based on the design of the furniture, the recovery of original elements of the estate, and the chromatic combination to gain useful space and a feeling of spaciousness at the same time.
The project starts from a redistribution of spaceIn such a way that the small original rooms give way to an open distribution where the living room, the kitchen and the master bedroom are connected, maintaining a certain subdivision.
In this sense, the kitchen is located at the end closest to the windows on the street, while the bedroom ventilates to an interior patio and connects with the living room through a sliding door. In the entrance hall we find a complete bathroom and a small room for the washing machine and the boiler.

With the double objective of saving costs and contextualizing the home in its origins, we have tried to make use of the original elements from the estate itself that hides timeless treasures, such as the Catalan vaulted ceiling.
” The surprise was that when removing the false ceiling we saw that the original beams were in very bad condition. That made the project more expensive and demanded a little more time and inventiveness, ” they explain from Coblonal.

On the walls, the exposed brick – suitable with fixative to eliminate dust and its degradation – brings a curious touch between industrial and warm to the whole.
On the other hand, the original carpentry of natural wood windows and doors has been recovered. For the flooring, on the other hand, a tile of new inspiration has been used, very similar to the original.

If for any reason this small apartment is characterized by the carpentry work carried out by Coblonal’s trusted craftsmen from the design of the studio. In the living room, bedroom, kitchen and bathroom we find pieces that become key in the very conception of the distribution of the house.
The chromatic conjunction leads to a unified and wide perception of the space, which makes the house not seem so small.

The light filters through the sliding door that separates the dining room from the bedroom. “We have recovered discarded windows from other projects to give a certain intimacy and a classic touch to the whole,” they point out from Coblonal.
In the bedroom, we find a complete wardrobe with different open shelves as a niche, which serve as a bedside table. At the other end, taking advantage of a nook towards the window that overlooks the interior patio, a small desk has been placed that acts as a study.

In the bathroom, natural wood shares the limelight with the white of the hexagonal ceramic wall cladding and the oval sink. Two horizontal wooden boards act as a countertop and storage. Contrast the matt black of the built-in faucet and the shower screen.

Again in the kitchen we find wood, white and the contrast of the black details. The furniture combines wood with the white marble of the countertop and the black lacquered iron of the shelves, along with the handles.
