Casa JAM occupies the top floor of a residential building in Madrid's Argüelles neighborhood, within the 19th-century grid of the Castro Plan. This urban fabric, characterized by high ceilings and generous proportions, serves as the setting for the renovation of a 78 m² apartment with an east-facing terrace. The space is designed as the ultimate sanctuary for Toni, an aeronautical project manager and pop culture enthusiast, alongside his dog Kea, starting from an ambitious desire: to live inside a work of art and design his ideal residence.

The story of EME House is born from a memory and a desire. The memory of Manuel, its owner and a lover of design and cooking, who, upon visiting the apartment in the center of Madrid for the first time, felt as if he had already lived in a similar place, with a related spirit but in another time. And the desire to imagine himself reading on a Sunday in the living room, with light streaming through the large windows, framing views of the Plaza Mayor, Toledo Street, the Plaza de Puerta Cerrada, and the Collegiate Church of San Isidro el Real, landmarks of historic Madrid.

'French family looking for an apartment to settle in Madrid for an indefinite period of time'. With this headline, Marion and Paul Franck, a couple with three young children - Leo, Romeo and Zöe - who until then had lived, due to his work in the aeronautical industry, five years in Toulouse, another two in Reunion Island, one in Washington and the last four in London, presented themselves in the studio at the end of 2022. The difference with previous destinations is that Madrid now appears to be the place they have chosen to settle permanently. And they do so by acquiring a 151 m2 dwelling located on the top floor of a residential building constructed at the beginning of the 20th century in the Justicia neighborhood, near Gran Vía and Chueca, in the center of Madrid. With a marked longitudinal character and a floor plan organized around three courtyards, paradoxically, despite being a penthouse, the dwelling does not establish notable links with the surrounding urban profile. Rather, as if it were the shell of an armadillo, it is closed and protected from the outside. For this purpose, it has an extensive roof: a 200 m2 surface of undulating and opaque tiles, made up of 7 roofs of different slopes and lengths and consisting of a framework of wooden beams, many of them darkened, in poor condition and hidden behind a false ceiling.

CASAVERA is the transformation in the old fishermen's neighborhood of El Cabanyal, in the city of Valencia, of an old and humid sports store between party walls, of 135 m² on the first floor, into a bright Mediterranean home; a change of use that pivots on the fact that all the spaces of the house comply with strict accessibility regulations to make life easier for Elies, one of the owners and in a wheelchair since he was 18 years old due to a spinal cord injury caused by accident.

The current perception of the attics in the city center stands out for their potentially attractive character: they are elevated places, floating above the rooftops, partially visible structures from the street, not easily accessible, and sometimes associated with a bohemian life.

Shared living resources have become a common practice in recent decades in the social group from the age of 18 onwards. This sector of the population, basically students and travelers, finds in this form of shared domesticity an alternative to family life. A space and a time where collective action is developed, which favors both economy and sociability, compatible with the desire of people to become independent. And all in the same building.

The traditional structure of Madrid's flats -a system of load-bearing walls parallel to the facade enclosing a set of rooms of different sizes that revolve around interior courtyards and are both isolated and connected by a corridor- is the starting point for this house for a single person located on a third floor of an apartment building in the Malasaña district.
