Red is the colour of choice for this compact family house on the outskirts of Barcelona, designed by local studio Arquitectura-G to sit on top of a garage.
House in Sant Antoni de Vilamajor is a 250-square-metre, single-storey home located in a village to the northeast of the city.
The materials palette for the house include concrete blocks and clay tiles
Red surfaces feature both inside and outside, adding colour to an otherwise simple palette of materials that includes concrete blocks, minimal glazing and clay tiles.
The Arquitectura-G team had originally planned to use green, but they ended up opting for this shade instead. It allows the building to stand out from the surrounding plants and trees, but also offers a feeling of warmth to the living spaces.
