From the architect: The new owners, a Norwegian couple in love with design and with the city of Barcelona, had understood the potential of its sunny inner courtyard covered with ivy vines, and chose to buy it as their holiday residence. They wanted to transform it in a bright and open space and create a semi-exterior garden to overcome the lack of an outdoor space.

YLAB Arquitectos proposed a concept that frees up the space through important structural changes, opening the façade to the inner courtyard and recovering the historical gallery to revamp it as a gallery garden.

This Project was open to the public during the last Barcelona Design Week 2018. The event was presented thank to the collaboration of prestigious international design companies such as Gira, Neolith, Blum, Levantina, Novy by Veravent, Gardena y Gunni & Trentino.
