A house where natural stone resists staining

The kitchen was the key to achieving a welcoming home. “They stressed the importance of the kitchen as a family meeting place to chat and share, and the desire to have an island to sit around while preparing meals”.

The couple visited the Casa Decor 2020 exhibition in search of inspiration and it was there that they fell in love with White Macaubas, the quartzite by Sensa that Gärna Studio had used in their ‘Narciso’ project. Being a natural stone, they were initially unsure about its use in the kitchen, but Laura and Enrique explained the benefits of Sensa’s anti-stain protection, which offers the possibility to enjoy the most unique designs of nature in every space of the house. Thus, this quartzite became the absolute protagonist of the kitchen, covering the central island and part of the floor.

Natural beauty

For the bathroom in the master bedroom they also opted for Sensa. In this case, the colour chosen was Taj Mahal, an off-white background crossed by soft brown veins. The bathroom countertop, together with the surrounding elements, such as the wallpaper with plant motifs or the wooden furniture, create a pleasant feeling of contact with nature.

The customers wanted a house that was modern but also timeless, so they went for a refined, architectural design with straight lines, based on natural materials such as stone and wood, to which they added powerful and colourful works of art. “Studying the best materials to meet the specific needs of this family made the project very enriching”, says Gärna Studio.
