Andreu Carulla

Termas Bonay is a play of contrasts: an urban oasis, decidedly wild.

An evocative space where nature is the protagonist, immersing the guest in a multisensory experience.

At Andreu Carulla Studio, all elements were custom-designed to provide narrative coherence to the space, in line with the vision and sensations intended to be conveyed. Additionally, through a careful selection of materials and unconventional techniques—yet highly functional—character and sustainability are brought to the project.

Fiberglass, commonly used in industry but rare as an aesthetic element, was chosen for the creation of planters, bollards, and the hammam roof.

It is a lightweight, highly durable, and resistant material that, combined with the plasticity of resin, results in translucent and highly expressive pieces that boldly showcase their construction and assembly, resulting in an organic and distinctly industrial aesthetic.

Utoopic, the studio’s editor, was responsible for producing the pieces through local artisans, using entirely manual techniques.

The terrazzo flooring was created using leftovers and scraps from construction, forming a unique mosaic with various dimensions and a geometric layout: terracotta dust for the color base, small fragments to add dynamism, and large pieces that contribute expressiveness to the piece.

The result is a singular, brutalist atmosphere with a lot of personality.

Fernando Martos

This garden by Fernando Martos, in collaboration with Andreu Carulla, features traditional elements of the Mediterranean garden, such as pots, pergolas, clay flooring, vines, and jasmines, reinterpreted in a contemporary key.

Both studios, renowned for their ability to explore new design visions, bring their unique perspectives to the project, each from their own discipline.

The space includes three large trees arranged as sculptures, accompanied by more than 30 varieties of perennial and herbaceous plants, specially chosen for this location.
Through a carefully considered selection based on seasonality, scent, different flowerings, and textures, this garden offers a very special sensory experience.

Among the standout projects is the recent opening of a new Loewe store in China and a garden in Toledo, where Fernando’s Mediterranean style is beautifully represented.

Nina Masó

Nina is the indoor lighting editor at Santa & Cole, an industrial design and product editing company based in Barcelona focusing particularly on lighting design.

We met Nina in an astrology class and shared our project with her before it even existed. Lighting was crucial for us. Everything depends on light: It’s what shapes the way we perceive the world, and we wanted to give the most beautiful perspective possible.
Look around you at Casa Bonay. These lamps have been inspired by glowing cigarettes and candlelight. How do they inspire you?

Marc Morro

AOO was one of our favorite shops in Barcelona. At first it was only a dream for us to imagine that they could design our furniture. Marc designed the wooden pieces you will find in your rooms, our rooftop terrace tables, the recreated chairs by Miguel Milá in our Libertine lounge, and our entire reception desk and shop, among other things.

Studio Tack

We admired Studio Tack‘s vision of space and invited them over to see our house in ruins. It was love at first sight. They stood in awe on our antique staircase, admired our original floor tiling, and gaped at the natural light. Someone who appreciates those little things was only going to love and care for the house just as much as we did. The job was theirs, and what a job they did.
