Restoration project of a grand historic home in Alt Empordà
Restoring this majestic casa regia was a challenge that brought together history and functionality.


One of our most emblematic projects has been the restoration of a majestic casa regia in Sant Martí d’Empúries, Alt Empordà, an architectural gem featuring original frescoes and unique historic elements. Our work focused on preserving its essence and structure while overcoming the challenge of working with numerous arches and vaulted ceilings, which made expanding the spaces particularly complex.
Key aspects of the restoration
Maximising natural light: To counteract structural limitations, we strategically enlarged windows, allowing natural light to flood the spaces without altering the architectural essence.
Restoring original materials: The original floors and ceilings were carefully restored, maintaining the exposed stone interior as one of the home's most striking features.
Seamless integration with the landscape: The windows were designed as living frames, showcasing the garden and evolving with the seasons, creating a harmonious connection between the interior and exterior.
Balance between history and modern comfort: Restored furnishings with natural fabrics, renovated bathrooms that retain their original charm, and a fully refurbished kitchen that now serves as the heart of the home.
