We´re going to Granollers, a city in Barcelona province, to visit a new house from the architects at the Quatre Coses studio. A comprehensive renovation where the living area’s open zone plays a leading role.

The project has successfully brought dining room and kitchen together, and expanded the space given away to one of the bedrooms. We are now in a huge living room open to the natural light, which when it starts to fade is lit with STAN ceiling lights. And from the same collection, the wall light version is installed in the kitchen, right above the sink. From two single bedrooms, the architects have managed to create the master bedroom, also obtaining a much larger space. For reading lighting, right on the headboard-wall, they used LINK wall lights in bronze finish, providing coolness and modernity.

They did something similar with the child’s bedroom, previously the master which together with the old laundry room is now home to a large living room. Decorated with wallpaper painted with stars and moon, the LUNA wall light is installed right in the centre. It projects a pretty indirect light around the perfect structure to accompany evenings of games and sweet dreams. The bathroom, totally renovated, is lit by KOMBA pendant lights in beige and the mirror area and corridor, which displays the original brick, feature COTTON wall lights in black.

A comprehensive renovation whose result is a modern and functional home of open spaces, and which has found at Faro Barcelona a solution for the lighting in each room.

The architect David Labori has found at Faro Barcelona the perfect lighting for each corner of his latest project. And a ceiling fan, too.

It is the comprehensive renovation of an attic floor duplex in Barcelona’s Tres Torres neighbourhood. To make the most of the natural light and create a large communal space, the living-dining room, kitchen and laundry room were brought together, knocking down the interior walls and using glass sliding doors. There we find HYDE recess lights in black for the general lighting in the kitchen (also on the upper floor), a STAN recess light to illuminate the living room library and two pendant lights in grey from the KOMBO collection over the kitchen table. Installed over the dining room table, by contrast, is the PAM-G pendant light. The private aeras on the same floor, three bedrooms and three complete bathrooms, have been laid out to accommodate the bedrooms. In the master bedroom you will find SUAU wall lights, designed to project reading light, and in the children’s bedroom, with the same function, we find ACADEMY wall lights. The PEMBA fan has also been installed in the double bedroom, perfect for cooling down the summer nights and creating comfort all year round. Before we ascend to the duplex’s upper floor via an amazing staircase, we should note that it is lit by PLAS recess lights, as in the corridor, with the stairwell home to the PLUMA pendant light. A modern and impactful design combination which fits in very well with that space.

In this house’s upper part, designed with a renewable energies collection, we find a multifunctIonal living room and access to the terrace and to the balcony. Both outdoor spaces are lit by OLAN wall lights, with the SOUN-2 recess light on the terrace and the DART-1 recess light for the balcony.

The architect Elisabet Guasch and the Estudi Nou studio have renovated a small house in the Sarrià district of Barcelona for a family of four.

The main refurbishment consisted in widening the entrance hall and unifying it with the living room and kitchen in order to make the most of the space and natural light. The result is an open space with a minimalist and very Mediterranean decoration in colours and details.

As natural light is important in this home, artificial light must fulfil the same function when the sun goes down, and that is why we find Faro Barcelona lights all over the house. Two KOMBO hanging lamps in beige finish dress the wooden kitchen worktop and some LED strips do it under the furniture. In the bedrooms, ORA and BEL wall lights, both in a white finish, are installed next to the beds to provide reading light. At the entrance we find the KAMEN wall lamp in beige and in the children’s room, apart from the wall lights mentioned, we also find the MARGOT hanging lamp. The small interior patio is also one of the spaces where the lighting of Faro Barcelona is present with the TASA ceiling lights and the dark grey FOC spotlight. The list is completed by the ALO fans in the double room and the living room, which, although they are not luminaires, provide comfort and wellbeing throughout the year and manage to maintain the warm style of the entire floor.

The GUADALUPE wall lamp with green shade is the protagonist of the bedroom of HOUSE RS, the new project of the STUDIOTAMAT architects in Garbatella, Rome.

The main elements of the renovation are the open spaces distributed by the original beams, which are visible. This new home was originally a laundry room and now has 75 metres of living space.

In the main room we find the wall lamp version with reader in black finish and green screen from GUADALUPE, the modern, cheerful and daring collection from Faro Lab that gives a twist to the classic bedroom lighting. The interior designers have had a luminaire on each side of the bed to be used as a reading light. At the same time they accompany an incredible built-in wardrobe with glass doors.

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.
