Welcome to Duplex Folgueroles, a testament to Meritxell Ribé’s visionary design nestled in Barcelona’s architectural tapestry. Completed in 2014, this modern duplex apartment unveils the seamless blend of form and function, marking its stamp in contemporary living.

Architectural Elegance in the Heart of Barcelona

Upon entry, the living room greets you with its refined palette and textural contrasts. The smooth, dark marble coffee table anchors the space, flanked by plush sofas that whisper of comfort and style. Strategic lighting highlights the room’s sleek lines, with art pieces that punctuate the neutral backdrop with splashes of color.

Transitioning to the culinary sphere, the kitchen’s open-plan design marries utility with aesthetics. High-gloss cabinetry reflects natural light, while the central island invites social interaction. Here, Meritxell Ribé’s integration of technology and design serves not just meals but memories.

A Study in Spatial Harmony

The dining area, an extension of the kitchen, maintains the modern ethos with minimalist furniture and striking pendant lights. The subtle interplay of wood and light creates a warm ambiance, ideal for both casual breakfasts and formal dinners.

Upstairs, the private quarters showcase tailored sophistication. The master bedroom’s soothing hues and refined textures offer a serene retreat. A children’s room bursts with playful energy, its vibrant decor reflecting youthful imagination.

Refined Comfort in Private Spaces

The bathroom stands as a polished sanctuary, its sleek fixtures and clean lines embodying modern luxury. In contrast, the home office balances functionality with creativity, providing a versatile space for thought and innovation.

Completing the journey through Duplex Folgueroles, one discovers the tranquil haven of the reading nook. Surrounded by a carefully curated selection of books, the bespoke shelving invites one to linger and indulge in the written word.
