The Bruc Apartment by Cometa Architects was featured in a full-length print article in ABITARE, one of Europe’s most respected and historic architecture and design magazines. Set in a Catalan modernist building in Barcelona’s Eixample district, the project was celebrated for its theatrical reinterpretation of a heritage interior—merging original elements such as Nolla mosaic flooring and early 20th-century mouldings with a spatial rhythm defined by new brass-framed doors and moody chromatic contrasts. ABITARE highlighted the apartment’s scenographic perspective alignments, drawing comparisons to Peter Greenaway’s cinematic language. The publication underscores the project’s importance within the European architectural scene, as a compelling example of how to restore, reinterpret, and inhabit historic domestic architecture in a contemporary, emotionally resonant way. For Cometa Architects, this editorial marks not just international recognition but also a validation of their evolving language—where heritage, geometry, and spatial storytelling converge with precision and boldness.
