The rehabilitation comprises three continuous buildings in the rural settlement of Castromao, in Galicia, Spain. The goal is to transform the old farmers’ houses, currently abandoned and strongly deteriorated, into a dwelling by merging the three spaces that were originally independent. The area of the plot reaches a total of 150 square meters divided into the ground and first floors. The first step in the rehabilitation process is to identify the singular elements of the building. Once detected, these elements are carefully restored and the whole design process is planned such that the intervention is coherent with the historical elements preserved. The functional structure of the dwelling presents a clear distinction between the private uses on the first floor and the common use spaces on the ground floor. The two main façades are a perfect reflection of the climatic conditions to which they are exposed.
