CURRENT FLOOR PLAN

The renovation of this space, which includes 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a living-dining room, and a kitchen-laundry, was meticulously designed to meet the needs and tastes of its residents, offering a perfect combination of modern style, aesthetics, and functionality.

RESTORED FLOOR PLAN

At the heart of the renovation was the reinvention of the kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms, and transitional spaces such as the hallway. A modern and welcoming design was chosen, using materials such as melamine paneled boards and custom furniture, while retaining existing elements like the sofa and decorative paintings to maintain a sense of continuity and home.

ISOMETRIC A SIDE

Regarding the color palette, the walls of the living room were painted in a soothing beige tone, and the bedrooms in shades of smoky white and oyster white, creating a relaxing and luminous atmosphere. The electrical installations were modernized with smart outlets and switches, allowing control through mobile devices and contributing to energy savings.

From the color palette to the furniture and accessories, each detail contributes to creating an atmosphere that invites relaxation and well-being, turning this place into more than just a residence: a true home. Additionally, the design incorporates sustainable and eco-friendly elements, reflecting an awareness of the importance of environmental care.
