A key aspect of the redesign was to enhance the relationship between interior and exterior, ensuring that movement between spaces felt fluid and uninterrupted. The house had private rooms that were somewhat isolated from the communal areas, so the design sought to maintain privacy while reinforcing their connection to the shared spaces. The corridor became an essential element in this transformation, acting as both a functional link and a spatial organizer.
Another major intervention was to frame the sea horizon, something the original design had failed to exploit. This meant strategic openings, reorganized viewpoints, and an emphasis on seamless indoor-outdoor transitions. To further refine the exterior experience, a pergola was introduced, creating a protected yet open transition space that shields users from direct sun while encouraging a natural flow between inside and outside.
This was a collaboration with Menorcan architect Cristina Moll, and the documentation includes plans of the existing house, proposed modifications, sections, and visualizations. The approach was to modernize the house without compromising its essence, reinforcing its function as a gathering place while making it more responsive to its environment.
