Modern in an old mouldings shop

Posted on Tue, 17 Jul 2018 by midcenturyjo

An old plaster moulding shop on the ground floor of an early 20th century building in Barcelona was dark and derelict until architectural firm Valentí Albareda created a magical light filled home with central courtyard and a distinct modern flavour inside its rustic exposed brick walls. Love the almost sculptural feel to elements such as the staircase and shelving.

 

So much to love. The hidden courtyard in the front is brilliant–some light, a little outdoor space, yet privacy even though it’s right on the street. And, I imagine, some security, too.
That rail for the stairs and the stairs themselves are amazing.

Ah, and I love this space too. A beauty – so nicely done.
