The magical transformation of a dilapidated house
It is far easier to create something new from emptiness than from a structure that is in ruins! For one,
there is the limitation of having to keep the former structure without
demolishing or damaging it. On the other hand is the expectation that a home owner
would have of a space that he dreams of calling home. Facing up to the
challenge brilliantly, architects Elvarquitectos took this shabby old structure
and transformed it into a
beautiful, modern home
that any family would be proud
to live in! Let us see how.

Dilapidated old structure
ELVARQUITECTOS
The original structure as we can
see below was in a crumbling state with sooty walls damaged by humidity. The
architects kept the main structure but added the open space seen in front of
the entrance to the new structure, giving them a larger area to work with as we
will see in the subsequent pictures. It is amazing to see how a crumbling set
of walls makes way for a home with all amenities and aesthetics one could ask
for!
Striking new structure
ELVARQUITECTOS
Here we can see that the façade
of the structure is completely transformed and now looks stylishly modern.
Though the brick wall may give the feeling of a closed space, this is
counterbalanced by the use of railings of different height. The dull structure
we saw earlier now sports a
contemporary look
with the brick wall providing
colour and charm to the look.
Modern, minimalistic entry
ELVARQUITECTOS
The new entry has a warm and intimate feeling
provided by the
brick walls
seen in contrast with the wooden modern door. An overhang
protects the entry and also the area outside the large window. A dry garden is
provided with plants that are easy to care for. Stones in different colours are
also added to the dry garden.
Bright and airy kitchen
ELVARQUITECTOS
From this view we see light enter the
classic kitchen
from the large grilled window. It is a functional kitchen with
ample space for cooking as well as storage. The kitchen is connected to the
living room by means of the white ceramic tiles speckled with black which not
only provides continuity but also visually expands the space.
Charming backyard
ELVARQUITECTOS
The walls of the back of the
house share a visual continuity with the front by the use of the brick column
and the grey walls. The glass doors that open into the kitchen are seen here as
also a charming chimney above.
Spacious garage with skylights
ELVARQUITECTOS
By the side of the entrance we
can see the space set aside for a garage that is provided with skylights to
bring in a maximum of natural light. The brick and grey walls and grey railings
that dominate the design are seen here too.Transform the way you look at homes and interiors by staying with us on the next tour!
