Частная резиденция в Эмпорда, историческом регионе в Каталонии.

Большой сельский дом построенный в начале ХХ века после недавнего обновления,
 после недавнего обновления совместил функции жилища и галереи для своего
владельца - коллекционера дизайнерской мебели и современной живописи. 

Для лучшего диалога экстерьера и интерьера были дополнительно сделаны проёмы
 и окна. Под увитым виноградом навесом, затеняющим крыльцо и обеспечивающим
единение дома с новой гостевой зоной, разместился большой стол для обедов на
 свежем воздухе. В гостиной разместилась антикварная дизайнерская мебель 50-х и
60-х годов Жана  Пруве (Jean Prouve) и  Шарлотты Периан (Charlotte Perriand). Стены
 дома украшают картины современных художников из коллекции хозяина дома.
Кроме гостиной-галереи первом этаже основного здания находятся также кухня и
несколько помещений для отдыха. На втором этаже расположены хозяйская спальня
 и две гостевые спальни с гардеробными и небольшая студия. Проект обновления
 и реализация студии Francesc Rife Studio.

House in L’Emporda by Francesc Rife Studio:

“This project combines our fascination of 50’s and 60’s furniture by Jean Prouve and Charlotte Perriand with the typical rural architecture of the Emporda (in Catalonia).

Creating a country house, a rural palace of the early twentieth century, the project works as a home-gallery with open spaces that allow exhibit works of art and classical furniture from the private collection of the owner to be showcased.

Focusing on eliminating unnecessary elements, the flooring has been created using white microcemento except for the annexed building where the Studio flooring uses wood unifying with the stucco of the walls.

A monochromatic white color scheme has been used throughout the interior. White serves to emphasize the impressive pieces of furniture and art, with the house also used as a gallery. In the large main hall, works of art selected specifically by the owner are displayed for viewing.

The study incorporates materials including iron and blued steel, contrasting with the more organic elements of housing such as the old stone and whitewashed walls. This beautiful affect has been integrated into the openings of the exterior, kitchen furniture, new dressing room, bedroom and main bathroom.

On the ground floor of the main building there is a living room-gallery, kitchen and several rest areas. Upstairs there are two guest bedrooms that can be accessed through a distributor with a facing that serves as a dressing room / cloakroom.

As a separate structure on this floor there is the main bedroom, reached through a Calacatta marble bathroom. Flanked by closet doors made of natural wood, there is a small working studio that can be accessed from here.

Several steps lead to the main bedroom with sheet iron headboard featured to create an almost monastic bedroom with original rustic flooring kept in place. The room has access to a large terrace.”
