San Lucas anchors a 300 m² apartment renovation in Madrid, Spain, where ARQUID Architecture revisits a historic structure facing Plaza de las Salesas. The project reworks a once-compartmentalized home into an open, light-filled residence that respects its original brick, timber, and generous balconies while aligning closely with the owners’ contemporary routines. Rooms now flow around a continuous masonry spine, and everyday life takes place against a carefully tuned play of materials and light.
