General lighting in a house on La Castellana

By

The SVEN round ceiling light illuminates a house on Madrid’s paseo de la Castellana. A new home that has been completely renovated by the Romero&Montoya studio, who also used the FRESH recessed ceiling light. The building was constructed in the 1950s and the house had a long dark corridor leading to the different rooms. To open it up to natural light, the architects brought the communal rooms together in the part of the facade with the most light and left the bedrooms in the other part.

To reinforce the light available in the different areas of this open-plan kitchen-diner, they used the SVEN ceiling light, an ally for general lighting which helps to increase the sensation of spaciousness, height and luminosity. In the bedrooms and the bathrooms, lower due to the false ceiling, they used the FRESH recessed model.

An optician in Valencia with Faro Barcelona lighting

The MINE SPACE pendant lamp illuminates one of the corners of the new optician Óptica Climent in Burjassot, Valencia. It was chosen by the Studio Lyke interior designers, who designed a space with the objective of “bringing the product closer to the customers.” To do so, they created a transparent glass facade, turning the interior into the perfect window display. At first sight the display units (to the sides and with one central unit) can be seen with new products, and then the customer service areas with counters, tables and chairs.

It is precisely the corner for “meeting” customers that is lit by Nahtrang’s collection of MINE SPACE pendant lights. Thanks to the initial idea of creating compositions according to need, at Óptica Climent we can find the unitary version and two doubles, all in grey finish. Photography: Jordi Díaz

MINE and a flat with a lot of history

“Seeking to remove the layers of years of modifications and return their simplicity” was, in the words of the interior designer Cosma Mussachio, the main objective of the Vilardell project.

We are in Barcelona’s Sants neighbourhood, in a flat built in 1902 with natural light entering through three different points, a spacious dining room, kitchen, bathroom and three large bedrooms, one with a balcony and dressing room. Mussachio managed to rescue the original materials and simplify the design of the entire dwelling. Now walls, beams and a beautiful pressed tile floor in the kitchen and corridors stand out.

The MINE pendant lamp can be found in one of the master bedrooms, where it hangs on both sides of the bed and is an integral part of a bedroom of light tones. The wall acting as headboard is disrupted with original materials and the combination of both elements gives it a modern, singular air. The Nahtrang-designed light has wooden elements which provide warmth and it projects a warm light that is perfect for lighting a bedroom like this one.

Lighting up the summer nights

In Polop de la Marina, Valencia, the Larcosta architects have designed different housing models in a relaxed neighbourhood perfect for spending the summer holidays.

We enter the ‘Juliet & Romeo’ house, a two-storey home, sitting on a 628m2 property, with a swimming pool, garden and various terraces. A space with large, open rooms that integrates the exterior and leverages natural light.

The bedrooms are also spacious and functional. The cabinets are built into the walls, which, in turn, separate the different spaces; and the beds are lit with two Faro Barcelona wall lamps: the LINK in a bronze finish, and the MITIC. As already mentioned, the exterior plays an influential role and is designed to embrace long hours of relaxation, meals, games and naps. To light up the terrace table, Larcosta has once again trusted Faro Barcelona with a MISTU outdoor shade, perfectly integrated as a pendant lamp on the porch ceiling to accompany the spectacular view of the pool and landscape.

A great reform in Valladolid

The BeSpoke design studio has been commissioned to refurbish a large house in Valladolid, and to do so, it has used the technical lighting of Faro Barcelona.

The objective of this reform, whose space has 99m2, was to combine the family’s private space and the large areas for meetings and guests. The result is a flat with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a separate kitchen and an L-shaped living-dining room.

Lighting has played a fundamental role in this house of minimalist and modern style, where wood is the great protagonist. To give it its “power” BeSpoke has chosen Faro Barcelona’s LED strips to “reinforce the position of the beams”, also behind the main furniture and under the wooden bench in the living room, the niches and the mirrors in the bathrooms. The LED strips emit warm light and allow for glare-free illumination. They are a good solution for highlighting objects and spaces while remaining unnoticed. From Faro Barcelona we also find the HYDE adjustable recessed lights as general lighting throughout the house and in black finish in the bathrooms, the REL-P ceiling in the centre of the kitchen and the TEN lamp in black finish.

Tropical-minimalism in a house full of memories

Romanian interior designer David Raymond decided a year ago to renovate the lower floor of his family home.

The 58 square meters room has been given a second life by the designer with the mix of various styles full of personality: “tropical minimalism”. The refurbishing, which gave place to a large open space, has been carried out with wood on the floor, ceiling and some walls as main material of the project. A central and protagonist arch separates the entrance from the different rest areas of the house maintaining the old spirit of this country house. Raymond has distributed the room with different chill and reading areas that he has combined with different furniture, a green wall and elements of decor. In one of these corners you can find the floor lamp in bronze finish LINK which directs perfectly its beam of light to support your reading.

From Faro Barcelona the interior designer has also used the FUGA projector lamps in black finish, as general lighting.

A reform with a lot of personality thought to keep, again, many family memories.

An endless summer

The team of Egue and Seta says that in this house “he lives the summer and doesn’t get bored”. That is probably why the architecture studio has named the project “Summermode”.

It is a 209m2 house in Corbera de Llobregat, Barcelona, designed to rest and recover. The objective of the reform has been to bring the pool and garden environment closer to the interior so that all spaces are equally accessible.

The result is an incredible two-storey house, with open spaces and modern and functional decoration. And although we would get lost in any corner, we have noticed how the LE VITA lamp illuminates the sofa area of the studio and the VERSUS model the porch and the garden. The former is part of the collection with the same name by Nahtrang and the latter is a design by Pepe Llaudet. VERSUS is an outdoor table lamp, but in this project we see it converted into a floor lamp installed with the structure. A very good option to leave the light to the measure of the sofa and, therefore, of the people who will enjoy it. Photography: Vicugo Studio

An incredible barn with Faro fans

A few kilometres from Santander is the latest renovation project of Zooco Estudio.

It is the reconversion of an old stable into a summer house, practically distributed in only one floor and room. The reform has taken into account the original plan and, in a subtle way, has improved it leaving the wooden beams visible. The most important modification has been made to the façade, which has been modified to “let nature in” and to accompany the fantastic Cantabrian landscapes.

The result is an incredible space, wide, simple and very stylish. The ceiling, which has the typical sloping shape, gives it a lot of personality and is complemented by the Faro Barcelona LANTAU fan in the dining area. A modern style fan that, thanks to its oak wood finish with black motor, fits perfectly into the design.

From Faro Barcelona we can also find the WINCHE ceiling fan. In this case it is located on the porch, where it will surely help to cool down the summer evenings thanks to its technical characteristics that allow it to be installed outdoors. The porch is another of the essential elements of this house that has an incredible environment (with swimming pool included). Photography: Imagen Subliminal

Technical lighting in a stylish home

Sometimes, when we talk about lighting an interior design project, we forget the importance of technical lighting. It may be the “least visible” but at the same time it is the most necessary and indispensable. This project by Rodes Arquitectura in Alicante is an example of this. The FRESH and RADON recessed lights have been installed in corridors and at the entrance to the kitchen. They bathe the space and accompany the route to the main rooms. RADÓN is also adjustable, allowing the light to be fixed to the preferred “path”.

This remodelling has also included the TROOP recessed fixtures in the bathroom where they act as general light, and the IBIZA, NASSAU and OBOE fans in different rooms.

It is a spacious, two-storey house that has been completely refurbished. Of minimalist and very elegant style, it plays with the entrance of some spaces and others and it is characterized by the terrace of the superior floor, integrated completely to the house with a large window-acordion.

The favorite designs of “La finca roja”

“La finca roja” is the interior design studio of architects Ana Martí and Alfonso Zumárraga, who define their projects as “honest, timeless and elegant”, and in three of their latest works in Valencia they have used lighting from Faro Barcelona. Unique designs with a lot of personality.

For the penthouse on Calle Joan Llorens, the composition of four MINE pendant lamps presides over a side wooden table. It is a small flat where they have wanted to take advantage of the height of the ceilings – like a good attic -, the natural materials such as wood or stone walls, and the idea that natural light “enters” from all the rooms. In the same location, but on Calle Colón, it is the hanging design of LE VITA in a gold finish and the PURE wall lights that illuminate the dining room. In this space, the predominant colours are black and natural wood which contrast perfectly with the finish of our lights. Nothing to do with the space of the rooms, more “cold” and white. In them we can find the SUAU wall lights in black on both sides of the bed. And, in the last project we told you about, the one in the area of the San Antonio Hills, we also find the hanging lamp LE VITA above the table. In this case, the style of this one-storey house is much more minimalist and white is the protagonist in its entirety. In a corner of the living room open to the outside we find the ACADEMY floor lamp, in what can be a good reading shelter. In white finish, of course.
