The Barros Apartment by Cometa Architects, recently featured in Leibal, represents a refined exercise in spatial clarity and material sensitivity. Set within a 1960s building in Barcelona’s Pedralbes district, the project reimagines a domestic interior through a restrained yet expressive palette—combining textured terracotta brick volumes, lime-washed surfaces, and precise carpentry. Its inclusion in Leibal, a publication known for curating minimal and concept-driven architecture, underscores the project’s ability to merge Mediterranean warmth with contemporary restraint. The feature affirms Cometa Architects’ position within the international discourse on residential minimalism, where atmosphere, geometry, and materiality define lived space.
