Housing in Rocafort

Architectural project in Rocafort carried out by the architect Victor Tatay and AT4 group. A restored house in which the main protagonist is the exterior and enjoy it from any room of the house. We highlight the large porch where you can enjoy the summer days.

In the main porch of the house the wooden beams are left in their natural color. This way we achieve a rustic finish with character but in harmony with the house and its location. The wood has been specially treated to withstand the passage of time but without changing its appearance. Special care has been taken to finish the beams at an angle so that they are decorative as well as functional.

In another area of the exterior, the porch is made, but this time with concrete beams. The same shape is maintained at the end creating a visual game with the wooden beams. In this way the architectural criteria of the house are unified but different materials are used depending on the area.

The exterior is transferred to the interior through the use of the same finishes and their continuity through the walls. This is the case of the wooden beams of the porch or the color of the pavement. It is worth mentioning the dry stone wall, one of the oldest and most popular types of architecture. Widely used in rural areas, this time it has been taken from the facade to the interior of the house to give it a special prominence.
