Wood Claddings and Furnishings in Tamariu Home | Siero Lam

Siero Lam is a Spanish producer of wood products and compounds for construction, dedicated to distributing sustainable timber solutions, such as the ones implemented in this single-family house in Palafrugell.

This house is located on a picturesque hillside in Tamariu, facing the imposing Mediterranean, this residence designed by 05 AM Arquitectura rises on a steeply sloped terrain along the coast of Girona, in northeastern Spain, near the border with France. This two-story home has been carefully oriented to the south to maximize panoramic views, natural light, and foster a lifestyle connected to the outdoors.

The architectural design is a synthesis of elegance and functionality, with a language that fully leverages the site's resources. The white cladding, traditional in the Mediterranean environment, reflects the landscape brightness, while the prominent use of chestnut wood by Siero Lam, both indoors in composite wood elements and outdoors in the claddings, adds warmth and texture. This noble material not only enriches the interior aesthetic but also plays a crucial role in the home's structure, visible in the beams that stand out as key architectural and structural elements. They seamlessly adapt to the requirements of load-bearing capacity, formal stability, and aesthetics.

The house not only integrates perfectly into the hillside but also respects the natural environment, taking advantage of uninterrupted views of the Mediterranean and promoting an outdoor lifestyle in perfect harmony with the coastal surroundings.

The volume composition is guided by the land's slope and the area's potential views. The sloping roof adapts to this topography, allowing to distribute views and lighting, with a distribution of service rooms on the top floor, followed by social areas and the master bedroom on the main floor, with sea-facing views in the living room and double heights in the dining room.
