T111 Apartment

This small apartment is located on a top floor in hip Sant Antoni neighborhood, Barcelona and was refurbish by Colombo and Serboli Architects (CASA). . The brief was to take the empty, irregular floor plan (demolitions had already been carried out) and transform it into the perfect home for a young professional Italian woman. The client’s wishes were an open-plan day area, a clean-lines project, loads of light, a big kitchen unit, one double bedroom that could be minimal and a bathroom, as big as possible, with natural light and ventilation, serving the bedroom but open to guests.

The bathroom is lined with vertical tiles, in the same sage grey-green colour as the wardrobe and it’s designed to take advantage of irregularities. It features a wide, prism-shaped shower complete with a built-in seat, whose transparent glass let the light in the restroom. All furniture is bespoke, including the wall closet lacquered in the same colour as the rest of the bathroom. Floors and the angle shaped counter are made in thin, micro-textured, large-format porcelain slabs. Two globe lamps, especially finished in brushed nickel, just like the faucets, are placed on each side of the circular mirror.
