Nook Architects found two apartments in a poor state, with several adaptations over the years leaving them with a confused layout of compartmentalized rooms and very little natural light. Stripped out false ceilings and dividing walls, the architects want to transform two next-door apartments in Barcelona’s gothic quarter into a pair of bright and spacious homes. Each apartment is organized into a day zone oriented towards the street and a night zone towards the quieter rear facade. Dividing the two zones is a chunk of wooden flooring, which extends upwards into a bench. Above it is a metal rail that conceals a strip of lighting and acts as a clothes hanger.
