“Perhaps the word that best represents the sprit of our work on this building is “service.” First, the project provided a service to the city by restoring a magnificent façade designed by the architect Miguel Martín-Fernández de la Torre. At the same time, it was a thoughtful, balanced, and harmonic interior renovation in pursuit of the simple comfort that residential use requires while respecting and serving that same façade, which became the driving force behind the entire project.
George Chabot said that cities are entities that build themselves and in which all the elements converge to form “l’âme de la cite.” Through this project, I think we have helped restore part of that soul and promote the conservation of the city’s architectural heritage”.
