Casa Gil is a minimalist home located in Vilaür, Spain, designed by Despiece. This project aimed to honor the natural beauty of its surroundings. The main structure and façade of the original building remained unchanged, ensuring the architecture blended seamlessly with the environment. The intervention was minimal and tailored to the clients’ needs, allowing the landscape to remain the focal point. A nearby farm building was preserved to maintain the historical context of the property. The garden featured a 22-meter pool, drawing inspiration from traditional Mediterranean “bassas” and “safreigs,” designed to cater to the family’s love of swimming. The interior design followed a straightforward approach with a free-plan module for daytime activities, connected to the garden through an open porch. The two-story night area was thoughtfully arranged to frame the surrounding nature, creating a harmonious living space that embraced its environment.
