Sometimes, true luxury lies in proximity. In being close without intrusion, in sharing without sacrificing independence. That was the starting point for a singular project by interior designer P\u00eda Capdevil<\/a>a: a 300-square-meter home divided into two independent yet connected residences, designed for a mother and her daughter\u2014who lives with her large family\u2014seeking to live together without giving up their privacy.<\/p>\n\n

The architectural solution is as simple as it is brilliant: a shared entryway serves as both a symbolic boundary and a meeting point. From there, a hallway leads left to the daughter\u2019s home and right to the mother\u2019s. Removing the dividing wall would restore the original unified space. But this project is about more than just floorplans\u2014it\u2019s about how design can redefine cohabitation with elegance, intelligence, and care.<\/p>\n\n

The family home: spacious, rhythmic, and filled with light<\/h2>\n\n\n

Spanning 190 m\u00b2, the daughter\u2019s residence is conceived as a haven for the daily life of a large family, with four bedrooms and a spacious, well-articulated living area. Capdevila worked with a neutral palette, allowing the abundant natural light\u2014shifting throughout the day thanks to the triple orientation\u2014to shape the atmosphere of each space.<\/p>\n\n\n

The daytime area<\/strong> is organized around an open-plan living and dining room, connected to a separate but fluid kitchen through large sliding glass doors. A custom piece that begins as an entry unit and transitions into a bookcase visually links the spaces, adding both order and warmth. Functionality meets refined detail here: a home office nook, a piano in the dining room, soft textiles, and contemporary artworks all live comfortably together.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

In the nighttime area<\/strong>, a corridor leads to four bedrooms. The master suite, bathed in warm afternoon light, features a walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom, all rendered in a calm and tactile palette of light wood, white surfaces, soft fabrics, and adjustable lighting that adapts to the rhythm of the day.<\/p>\n\n

The three children\u2019s bedrooms<\/strong> follow a consistent logic: flexible spaces with clearly defined zones for sleeping, studying, and storage. Custom furniture adapts to the children\u2019s ages and evolving needs, combining practicality with a carefully curated color scheme\u2014blues, greys, taupes, and touches of mauve in the daughter\u2019s room. Everything is designed to grow with them.<\/p>\n\n

The mother\u2019s retreat: serene classicism and warmth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The second residence, measuring 110 m\u00b2, reflects a different sensibility\u2014more serene, more classical, yet still contemporary. Wood takes center stage here: on floors, furniture, and details, it shapes a warm and inviting atmosphere. The layout centers around a living-dining room with large windows, adjacent to a kitchen that maintains visual connection while preserving independence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The entry hall leads to a guest bathroom and unfolds into the rest of the home: a guest room, a functional kitchen with integrated laundry area, and a master suite with private bath. The kitchen features clean lines and durable finishes, combining white tones and textured microcement flooring to define zones with clarity and elegance.<\/p>\n\n\n

In the living-dining area<\/strong>, P\u00eda Capdevila has combined custom-made furniture with lightweight pieces and a traditional sofa arrangement. The result is a welcoming space where storage needs do not compromise aesthetics, and where every object\u2014a book, a lamp, a tray\u2014has its place.<\/p>\n\n

This home\u2014divided, yet united\u2014proves that architecture and design can build invisible bridges between generations. That living nearby doesn\u2019t mean giving up intimacy. And that \u201chome\u201d is not always a place\u2014it\u2019s sometimes the freedom to choose with whom, and how, we wish to share it.<\/p>\n\n\n
