The choice of redwhich symbolizes passion and energy, plays a role fundamental. “We have designed three main nodes: creativity, imagination and interconnection, all wrapped in a natural environment,” he adds in reference to the biofilia. “The plants are real, have been arranged in an innovative way, down and use a special gel that will keep them alive the entire sample without irrigation,” adds Villareal.

Cayetano Llovell Curiaof CLC Interiorhe debuted with his Hall y Mudroom in it Space No. 25. “I chose this place because I wanted to enhance the beauty of the windows and the architecture of the house. I wanted it to have a functional but also aesthetic component,” describes the architect and adds that he wanted to reinterpret the concept of Mudroom.

His work for “Active Pause” proposes a place to stop, reflect and connect with emotions. Also recovering the memory of what was the place, they propose to play in magnetized walls, write phrases on a wall that evokes a board and also draw.

“We want that Leave your mark In this space where art is shared, everyone contributes, ”they emphasize and emphasize that they expect the visit to Casa Foa to become a significant memory for those who manage to make that pause.

Paula Ocaña reversed the Winter Garden in it Space No. 29. The architect, which is presented for the third time in the sample, remarks that this garden focuses on permanence and connection with the environment. “We want to return life to a forgotten space,” he explains.
