Casa Sant Boi | 08023 Architects

Description

It's a modern, smart and healthy house. An example that sustainable construction can be simple and elegant. A house built with natural materials, designed to be enjoyed with great comfort and low maintenance. A construction that makes you happy.

Outside the house has been built with travertine material and black metal sheet the carpentries to match. The south facing windows have a solar control to regulate the interior temperature of the house. The main window allows to connect completely the living room and the kitchen with the garden and the swimming pool.

The exterior area enjoys views of the landscape rising above the surroundings. The low-maintenance Mediterranean garden and the swimming pool that uses rainwater help to reduce water consumption.

THE HOUSE IS AN EXAMPLE THAT SUSTAINABLE ARCHITECTURE CAN BE SIMPLE AND ELEGANT

In the heart of the house the living room and the kitchen enjoy a double space. All these pieces also open from an outside living and dining area next to the garden. The design combines simple lines with cozy and spacious spaces full of light.

The kitchen has been designed so that you can enjoy the activity of the house at all times. It is a centre for family meetings at any time of the day. Uniform and elegant, it keeps a perfect balance between aesthetics and functionality.

The staircase uses the minimum possible material to give way to the light and cross ventilation of the living room. A footbridge connects the rooms on the upper floor while maintaining structural lightness.

THE DESIGN UNITES SIMPLE LINES WITH WELCOMING AND SPACIOUS SPACES FULL OF LIGHT

All the rooms of the house Sant Boi enjoy illumination and views to the mountains. They are comfortable and versatile. They are designed to be able to change their layout over time and adapt to the changing needs of the family.

The highly energy efficient air conditioning system combined with the underfloor heating, the generous insulation and the low consumption lighting allow an excellent comfort at any time of the year, at any time of the day.
