One example of the charming design of herring, She rooftop apartment in Bilbao, Spain, It reshaped after the owners, A couple in their forties, Sought to upgrade it and adapt it to contemporary needs. The apartment is located on the top floor of a neoclassical building from 1815, In the old quarter of the city, Originally interpreted over 65 Square meters only, And has significant space division before the current renovation. According to Herring, Exciting and challenging part of the design space again, There were lovely terrace of about- 20 Square meters, And especially large space unused who rose to the height of the roof. Herring immediately spotted the potential in these areas, And decided to make them part of the dominant home.

In order to increase the living space, Hering removed the ceiling “False” Which served as a wall between the living space in the high roof soaring 4.80 M, And added to its mezzanine (mezzanine) Height 2.25 M. The original exposed rafters and painted, And presented the historical character of the house. Mezzanine, which was supported by four wooden beams and angle iron, Surrounded by glass walls to increase space, Thus added a bedroom and a bathroom more people 20 Square meters.

The walls and ceiling of the ancient building additional isolation coast to upgrade its acoustics, Thermal isolate it and prevent the heavy street noise. The floor was paved all the massive oak parquet, Except in the master bathroom, Designed with porcelain.

After four months of work and- 85,000 Euro invested instead, The result was the two-story loft, With terrace blooming, Fantastic location in the historic district of Bilbao. Thus preserved and emphasized the beauty of the ancient structure, The apartment faces new and inviting him in history that stretches out.

I believe: The winning combination is ideal in everyday practice, Beauty and Soul. Very important reference customer requirements and precise response on the functional level needs, While highlighting the nature of occupants and loves. His designs always give expression to works of art and creative uniformly in a house.

Design Approach: Do not treat all projects the same, But give the architectural lines of the building lead and define how to show his face. An ancient building from the 19th century, Beach house or apartment urban world are not shaped the same. Environment and the nature of the structure will impact directly on interior design.

Tip Design: In order to produce timeless design, You should choose the colors neutral tones largest space and light, And put in the color and character of complementary items, As objects, Photos and textiles like cushions and curtains printed with a variety of complementary.

Should not: Do not recommend to be perceived trends, Or make the house a museum display every new item that comes out. Stay true to yourself and keep it simple. Home design that will endure and remain up to date as possible. If you decide to redesign, Choose a professional designer could translate your lifestyle and who you actually.
