On
the ground floor where the barber shop used to be, we built a quite spacious
living room connected to the entrance hall through a staircase specially
designed for that purpose. With the main wall and modern techniques we
reinforced the existing supports, building a new bay to give access to
the new modern and practical kitchen full of light and very sober.
The floor of the ground floor was replaced by rustic and handmade tiles.
A stove was installed to heat the whole house.
The high level of humidity in the walls was one of the most difficult
things we had to deal with during the works.
A bathroom and a laundry were built on the ground floor exactly at the
same spot as the former bathroom.
The kitchen pinewood cupboards were specially designed
for that space. The ceilings of the bathroom and kitchen were made in cartooned
hydrophuge plaster.
