Just a quick blog as im in the middle of cooking..I came across this amazing Spanish studio by 2260mm Architects! It has SO much caricature! Its a early twentieth century house in Barcelona that features the old and the new. It's so important to keep part of the houses old self within its new remodelling! For example, some existing floor tiles have been kept in place to highlight new seating and walk ways. Transitional spaces have also been highlighted in this way, witch is a gorgeous way to keep some tradition into a modern renovation. This is why I enjoy to shabby sheek most of my furniture . . It allows the new user to see what the object was like in its former life before being renovation.
Some times pieces do not need "shabbying" as they talk for them selves. Like in this Spanish studio; beams are natural but they look amazing and fresh, they bring a new hight to the space! The roof seems light over head rather than heavy and waited! The balance of dark against natural with its use of colours and materials is also done very well in this renovation by 2260mm architects! I must stop typing now other wise our dinner for tonight will be burt!
