The design is basically a cleaning process on the existing structure by introducing new finishes, and intelligent use of colour that accentuates the spatial richness of the house, to which they add substitutions such as the old railings for lighter ones that generate a feeling of greater spaciousness.
A game of architectural nods to which is added the use of a porthole that allows Parque del Oeste to enter the interior of the house while its occupants take a shower, the creation of an infinite shelf for the owners, book lovers or a yellow path that leads to a special room.

Project description by Ale Estudio
The intervention takes place in an apartment within the unique building designed by the architect Luis Gutiérrez Soto, located in Madrid downtown.
The proposal, a house with character, organized in three heights, with double orientation and views on one side to the Parque del Oeste and on the other to the Royal Palace, aims to respect the entity of the house and at the same time enhance the qualities that make it special, adapting the house to the way of life of the new inhabitants.
Through the intervention, the house is transformed into a continuous space in which diagonals open and the set of heights of the building is perceived in its fullness.
Listening to and understanding the needs of a family dedicated to the publishing world, new finishes are provided, the old railings are replaced by lighter ones that enhance the feeling of spaciousness and through yellow brushstrokes, it is possible to accentuate some significant corners of the home.
Finally, there are small details that make this house something unique. A porthole that allows you to enjoy Parque del Oeste during a shower, an infinite shelf for book lovers or a yellow path that leads to a special room.
