Two fires destroyed all the interiors of the building. We believe the original finishing works were full of detail, therefore the proposal is based on a reinterpretation of similar palaces of the same period. A dialogue between past and present is established by a combination of the finest details and contemporary furniture while the use of noble materials, such as wood and stone, dignify the spaces. Its functional program is organized in three levels: social areas, dining room, living room, library and kitchen in the groundfloor, and bedrooms in the upper floors. An extension of the building gives place to a garage and a gymnasium that communicate with the new exterior garden and swimming pool.
