LAST CHANCE 🚨 Subscribe to NTS Mag by July 19 (11:59pm UTC) to receive your copy of Issue 8 with free worldwide shipping! https://www.nts-store.com/collections/subscribe Designed as his own home, architect Iñigo Palazón of DIIR transformed this once compartmentalised 47sqm/506sqft apartment in Madrid's Chamberí neighbourhood into a single open space, eliminating almost every door and partition. Instead, the renovation uses raised platforms, integrated joinery, and multifunctional furniture to define each living area while maintaining a continuous sense of space. A U-shaped granite platform with integrated furniture forms the living room, whilst a freestanding double-sided storage unit helps zone the kitchen, dining and bedroom space. Throughout the apartment, warm timber is paired with granite, metal, and textured finishes, creating a balanced material palette that feels both refined and inviting. 00:00-00:52 Introduction 00:52-01:27 Location 01:27-03:27 Floor Plan 03:27-04:40 Living Area 04:40-06:01 Kitchen 06:01-07:09 Dining Area 07:09-08:06 Bedroom 08:06-08:54 Bathroom 08:54-09:13 Laundry 09:13-10:37 Conclusion See our favourite design details from inside https://www.nevertoosmall.com/post/how-furniture-replaces-walls-in-this-47sqm-506sqft-madrid-home #smallapartment #architecture #interiordesign Ep 264 Project Name: Casa VA Architect: DIIR www.estudiodiir.com https://www.instagram.com/estudiodiir Produced by New Mac Video Agency Creator: Colin Chee Producer: Lindsay Barnard Director: Nam Tran Cinematographer: Sebby T Editor: Louise Mullins Music: Artlist.io Roy Reemy - Come back Home, Avni Vibes - Dreaming in Bossa, Aves - Rewind Kicktracks - Summer Ends Today, Share your projects with us- https://www.nevertoosmall.com/submissions Subscribe to our newsletter- https://www.nevertoosmall.com/subscribe Check out our store- https://www.nts-store.com Website- https://www.nevertoosmall.com Instagram- https://www.instagram.com/nvtsmall Facebook- https://www.facebook.com/nvtsmall
