Spanish studio Ra\u00fal S\u00e1nchez Architects<\/a> has renovated the PSM21 house outside of Barcelona<\/a>, adding an interior staircase to turn two separate apartments into one home with colourful details.<\/span><\/p>\n

The studio aimed to turn the properties, in the coastal town of Castelldefels, into a single 250-square-metre house that takes advantage of its sea views.<\/p>\n

“The connection with the views, which are striking, are paramount in the project, so the layout tries to connect all the spaces with the exterior, but without simplifying the space, creating, at the same time, a complex indoors living,” Ra\u00fal S\u00e1nchez Architects<\/a> founder told Ra\u00fal S\u00e1nchez told Dezeen.<\/p>\n

The studio initially renovated the upper apartment and will begin working on the lower floor next year. To connect the two floors of the building, which previously had separate entrances, the studio added an internal staircase.<\/p>\n

“The new requirements of the new family did not match the existing layout,” S\u00e1nchez said.<\/p>\n

“The two main storeys of the house were split and had no connection, and now the new house will be one only house, with a new connection staircase.”<\/p>\n

On the upper floor, a yellow entrance hall welcomes visitors to the house and leads into an open-plan kitchen and living room.<\/p>\n

Here, a blue-painted volume, which the architect calls the “kitchen cube”, holds the kitchen as well as a small storage room and the internal staircase.<\/p>\n

On its other side, doors lead to the floor’s three bedrooms, each of which is connected to one of the home’s two bathrooms. The bedrooms are separated from the living spaces by a hallway lined with cabinets.<\/p>\n

To create interest in the space, the architect worked with a number of different textures and bright colours.<\/p>\n
