Comprehensive apartment renovation in a building located in the centre of Vitoria, consisting of a living room, dining room, kitchen, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The proposed solution tried to capture natural sunlight in a city with a continental climate, with not much light, and quite cold for much of the year. This involved turning around the rooms-scheme distribution, locating the day areas (living room, dining room and library) on the south side, and the night areas (bedrooms) on the north side.

A series of translucent floor-to-ceiling sliding doors allow the separation of the different parts of the house but also the penetration of light, in order to achieve the desired transparency. The result is a neutral, refined and very comfortable interior appearance, by means of a divisible enclosure in which to house the varied artwork collection of its owners.
