The interior of this stone house in northwestern Spain was modernized by architecture firm Villacé + Cominges — the concrete interior walls and ceilings work beautifully with the original stone structure and offer a cool and soothing backdrop for the modern interior...
I LOVE concrete walls — they can be a bit "cold" for some people but are balanced with the warm wood floors and natural light in this space. And the colorful furniture adds even more definition.

I was drooling over that turquoise sofa until I realized ... I already have one just like it. Guess I bought the right couch?

What a beautifully balanced blend of natural (wood, stone, leather, textiles) and industrial (concrete, steel, glass) materials. And I love the cobalt blue window frames. They liven up the exterior without being inappropriate.

I *love* that sofa- and love it with the red one.

Yaaaay! Seeing houses like this from my country makes me less hopeless. This is totally not my style, but at least it looks great!

I have never posted a comment in AT, but now I feel I have to do it because...that is my city! Vigo! And that is exactly the area of the city I am planning to live when I move...
Just a few steps away from those streets you can find the Official School of Architects of Galicia, the Museum of Contemporary Art (formerly a prison)
and finally, the García Barbón Theater
Hope you like my city!

I love it! But then, I'm partial to concrete.
I wonder what kind of insulation system they used for the roof. (if any)
