Apartment/workshop in a listed Modernist building located in the district of the Raval of Barcelona with hydraulic mosaics, ceiling mouldings and panels featuring plant designs. The inclination of the owner -an artist- has given priority to the workshop areas, which are found in the preferred areas, while the dwelling takes up the central part of the building, away from the street. The project respects the interesting constructive elements of the building and takes a modern approach, a free form without complexes, yet avoiding confrontation and mimesis. It incorporates the building's traces, memory, context, remnants that bring the joy of modernising it with consistency, reconciling old and new with a detailed reduction.
