Many designers, and homeowners, play it safe with understated, and often uninspired, shades of white paired with wood details. This 1,300-square-foot modern house, on the other hand, shows that colorful accents in the right places can turn a non-descript apartment into something unforgettable.
“The owner, Nuria, told me that she wanted her home to convey a sense of peace,” says Rosana Fuster from Arkitandem, an architecture studio based in Valencia, Spain. “But she’s also this incredible whirlwind with a larger-than-life personality and we wanted that to be reflected in this project.”
Fuster’s words perfectly capture the two different sides of this apartment, which is also located in Valencia. On the one hand, it’s a simple and contemporary home in wood and white, filled with light. It embodies a feeling of relaxed well-being. On the other hand, there are a number of small details, surprising pop touches, that give this home its appealing energy and make it unique.
