In the leafy outskirts of Madrid, a single-family home in La Moraleja has undergone a remarkable transformation. What began as a modest intervention blossomed into an almost complete renovation, thanks to a connection between the client and the design team at Plutarco. The project, spanning 500 square metres, presented a unique challenge: how to infuse a contemporary essence into a traditionally styled residence without disrupting its classic charm. Plutarco’s response was nothing short of ingenious.
The designers’ first move was to reconfigure the floor plan, creating a seamless flow between the kitchen, living room, and dining area. This open-plan arrangement now spills effortlessly onto the garden and pool, embodying the essence of indoor-outdoor living. A more secluded zone houses the TV lounge and library, while the master suite includes a luxurious dressing room and ensuite. The ground floor accommodates additional bedrooms, with a separate wing dedicated to entertaining, complete with a gym and guest apartment.
Plutarco’s expertise shines through in their clever combination of materials and colours. Dark ceilings contrast with unique marbles, while oak woodwork and black herringbone floors add character to each space. A standout feature is the Chinese quartzite with striking green, grey, and black veins, which serves as a unifying element throughout the ground floor. This distinctive stone marks the transitions between spaces, setting the tone for the home’s colour palette.
The kitchen features Mutina flooring in dark grey tones. Three main elements define the space: a functional area in warm greys with white Silestone, a central island showcasing the Chinese quartzite, and oak cabinetry. A large midnight blue window visually links the kitchen to the dining room, ensuring the cook remains part of the social fabric—a concept championed by Charlotte Perriand in 1952.
The living room presents a gradient of greens, creating the home’s lightest area. Freestanding bar units connect to the dining space, while minimalist shelves flank the fireplace. Furniture selections from Note Design for Sancal, &tradition, and Studio Persona for Pierre Frey underscore the home’s blend of tradition and modernity.
The library, awash in terracotta tones, offers a cosy embrace. Oak woodwork provides rhythm, doubling as bookshelves, while bow windows create dedicated office and TV areas. Here, design icons mingle with pieces from emerging designers, including an Edra sofa, Cassina cabinet and armchair, and Sancal seating.
The master bedroom is a celebration of earthy hues, inspired by the unique Calacatta Viola marble. A dark blue ceiling contrasts with Campaspero beige stone flooring, while pink and maroon tones add warmth. An EX.T bathtub takes centre stage, framed by marble and Zellige tiling.
Secondary bedrooms each claim a signature colour, contrasting with the hallway’s neutral palette. Geometric door designs showcase Olivari’s Uovo handles, adding a playful touch to the circulation spaces.
