Today we talk to you about the rehabilitation of homes and the work that goes into doing a comprehensive project. It is one of our favorite projects, since home rehabilitation not only involves restoring structures, but also giving a second life to that home and creating a home with its own personality.
Adaptation and Redistribution of Space
The most important task is to know how to redistribute the space, fusing the history and past of that home with the present. Condition the home to make it functional while strategically redistributing the space to get the most out of it. At Antonio Calzado Estudio we love to adapt homes to the present and the lifestyle of our clients, preserving the historical essence.
The charm of the old
Perhaps one of the most important steps in the rehabilitation of homes and houses with a certain age is the process of recovery and conservation of structural elements. We can discover certain details that help us preserve the essence of the home and can end up becoming the protagonists of the final decoration.
We are talking about aged wooden beams to stone floors, niches in the walls, doors perfect for restoration, heel bricks, etc.
Materials for Rehabilitation
When incorporating new materials, the choice of these is important so as not to create contrasts that are too uneven. The magic of a good rehabilitation project is in the ability to merge the old with the current and to do this we can opt for natural materials, limestones, imitation hydraulic porcelain tiles, classic patterns, pieces with an aged effect, elegant color palettes, etc
You can recycle furniture to incorporate it into your design and give it a second life. Wood, like other materials such as iron or stone, can be given a specific treatment to give it a more careful aesthetic and perpetuate its passage over time.
Time to Decorate
When the rehabilitation construction process ends, the final step comes… giving a second life to the home through the interior design and decoration of its spaces.
In decoration, each personality and style rules, although the decoration style that best adapts to this type of rehabilitation projects is the relaxed, vintage or Mediterranean style. Get the most out of your home and play strategically with furniture and decorative elements. Add vegetation, mirrors that add depth and reflect light, and textiles that make your home a warm and welcoming home.
