Moliner House – a white cubical building – serves as the perfect house for a poet. Three floors where specially developed in order to separate three important activities of this particular client: living, sleeping, and dreaming. How wonderful!
Inspiration can emerge from every corner of this immaculate 216sqm house, so a proper level differentiation was conceived in order to achieve the maximum comfort and neutrality of each area.
On the ground floor, a generous open space conceals kitchen, dining and living zones strongly connected with the surrounding gardens as if there isn’t any kind of border between interior and exterior areas. These are the poet’s living spaces.
The sleeping level can be found in the basement, where two bedrooms with private bathrooms and patios provide silence and privacy. The most important activity of dreaming, or writing poetry, is reserved for the upper level. A library completes an open space plan illuminated by a set of translucent glass openings… the perfect filter for a quiet atmosphere.
A white spiral staircase located at the center of the house establishes the vertical connection of three distinct worlds. Only the green garden interrupts the all-white color palette, as if Moliner House is just a white piece of paper waiting to be written and become the first inhabitable poem…
