Dom Arquitectura used contrasting white and stone for the exterior of this house in Tarragona, Spain. Aiming to reference Roman city walls, the building is composed of two forms. On the ground floor, a stone facade opens up to a garden, while on the first floor, a white structure features balconies and terraces. The property, designed in 2018, also prioritises climate efficiency, using thermal insulation panels to prevent thermal bridges.
Andrea + Joan Arquitectes designed the House on the Woods in Tarragona, Spain. Designed in 2023, the project features the rehabilitation of an old rural dwelling and its surroundings. It is conceived as an occasional residence, intended as a refuge integrated into the forest.
The preexisting dwelling lies within a set of disused stone walls, where a Mediterranean forest of pine and oak trees has grown over the years, creating a synergy between the architecture and the landscape.
