The new distribution of the house was based on the need to get the most out of the available space and in this way enjoy every square meter of it. The three small individual bedrooms were converted in two much more spacious ones, with large wardrobes and an en suite bathroom. A service bathroom, living room and an in-office kitchen complete the distribution. The new kitchen which is open to the living room offers a perfectly integrated common space. Thereby, the wide glass access to the porch permits us to enjoy the precious views whether we are cooking or savouring the warmth of the fireplace.

The decoration is the perfect result of the combination of a modern, clean and bold style and materials inspired in the nature surrounding the house. Wood and stone are both the protagonists. Our wall covering model Berna, installed on the spectacular fireplace and on a wall in the dining/living room, brings warmth and authenticity to the whole space. The bathrooms deserve a special mention. Here, the designer has played with the wall covering Manchester, with brick aspect, and authentic aged marble of our trademark Zeneco in order to achieve a both rustic and modern appearance at the same time.

The exterior was projected as an extension of the same style as the house. The natural materials are still the common thread that runs through it all. The swimming pool, situated in front of the house, and being slightly elevated, stands out from the land. The pool deck was made of our floor tiles Azores and the copings Canada, that matches the floor tiles. This serie, with wooden aspect, stands out for its high anti-slip properties and its high aesthetic appeal of its wood grain texture.

 

Our wall covering model Timanfaya, with its rockery aspect, has been used for the exterior walls, both those in the pool area as well as those on the parking lot and the tool shed. Like all our wall covering models, this model is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. The realism of it brings the authenticity of the stone to the whole of this construction at the same time as it brings coherence and integrates perfectly the different elements in its natural context.

It is a promotion of 10 row houses built on a piece of ground with a slight slope and facades on three streets. The houses have been projected thinking on the environment and looking for the best views and orientation, to obtain as much natural light as possible. The access of each house has also the car park and a small garden area.

The dwelling, with 280 sqm and facing southeast is constructed on a plot of 1000 sqm. It has a spacious opening of 12 meters that connects the house with the exterior through three sliding panels that gives pleasant views both indoors and outdoors.

Both the architectonical part and the interior design were conceived as a whole and were designed jointly. This gives the house and the project a great coherence and personal style.

The dwelling has a horizontal design and one single floor divided in two blocks: on one side the living room, dining room and kitchen and on the other the bedrooms, distributed parallel to the swimming pool.

 

Materials

The materials that have been used both in the structural elements and in the interior design are varied. In spite of this, there is always a global coherence of the project and “adapting chromatically to the space where the elements carry out their function” is prevailing. We can see a lot of wood and reconstituted stone combined with Pladur ceilings, floors and concrete finishes. In this way, natural elements that provide warmth are combined with modern materials and “generate a vision of a solid dwelling that will last in time”.

Our wall covering Timanfaya, made of prefabricated concrete with the aspect of rocks makes the stone take the leading role in the project. In this way, the omnipresent stone combines with tones and naturalness with the wood in the pieces of furniture, doors and decorative details.

 

 

Installation

This spectacular single-family housing is situated in Valencia. Most of the constructed surface is situated on the ground floor and is cladded with our model Pizarra in the new colour “cobrizo”. There are special pieces on the corners and in the windows in order to achieve a perfect finish.

Just like the rest of our wall claddings, this model is suitable both for indoor and outdoor use and it resists perfectly different environmental factors as it has been hydrofuged and coloured in the mass.

The white, smooth and restrained lines of the upper floor, the porch pergola and some other details combine impeccably with the texture and relief of the stone and its intense cupper colour inspired in the earth and oxide. The exterior flooring, made of natural marble, concludes this harmonic complex where nature and modernity blend.
