Text description provided by the architects. The house is located a plot between walls of the historic neighborhood of El Cabanyal, in one of the north-south streets parallels to the Mediterranean Sea. The project is an integral rehabilitation of a Courtyard house from 1925. The crossing plot (east-west) allows the cross ventilation and provides direct access from the street; both of them inner characteristics of the maritime urban fabric. Its elongated rectangular plant (27,7 x 5,4 m) allows a sunny courtyard faced by the shadow of two lemon trees. The courtyard structures the main space at the front and an opposite one, smaller, located at the back. Also there is the access, through a stair adjoined to the mid wall, to a terrace placed above the small volume. The intervention is based on respecting the existing volume, with 150m2 of total surface and 106m2 of build surface.
