Make your home beautiful
Make your home and love spending time there:-
- Your terrace could be the best and most used room in the apartment.
- Your bathroom could feel like a spa. Using it should feel like a treat.
- Create calm tidy Zen-like order in your living space by optimising the usage and storage.
- Transform the ambiance by installing various lighting options for different uses from snug intimate relaxation for the evening to bright simulated daylight for the day if the place is naturally a bit dark
I do everything from 3D design to build completion.
Project management
A significant part of my work is repairing, or completely rebuilding poorly executed work. I am familiar with where things commonly go wrong and can stop projects going off the rails.
If you want to manage that whole process from abroad or locally, I can help.
The quickest and cheapest way to build is ONCE
Passive House (Passivhaus) Construction
Passive House construction is a very demanding standard for ultra-low energy buildings. I am a certified Passive House installer as as such I can execute or manage the construction of Passive House projects. I work with the leading Passivhaus architects in Spain Energiehaus
Buying a Property
Barcelona is a stunning city to live in. It has such a truly wonderful and unique combination of qualities that I fell in love with decades ago. It also has it's own distinct culture and values that need to be understood and respected. Making this place your home needs to approached cautiously and without many of the assumptions that you may bring with you if you are from another country.
