The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/tag\/renovation-architecture-and-design\/\"><strong>renovation<\/strong><\/a>, still ongoing, reimagines the 17th\u201319th century mansion as a contemporary family home. Guided by a process they describe as architectural \u2018acupuncture,\u2019 the team restores the building in parts rather than all at once, focusing interventions where the structure is most fragile and leaving other areas almost untouched. The result is a subtle, time-rich collage of original textures and contemporary touches, where palatial ruins and insertions coexist.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The insertion of a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/tag\/pools\/\"><strong>pool<\/strong><\/a>, conceived as a contemporary therme within the heart of the house, anchors the project. Accessed through a blue-and-yellow tiled changing room that features a semicircular bench, the pool gives a cool response to the summer heat while remaining usable year-round. From here, the thresholds of the home unfold in a series of zones marked by glimmering blue tiles that evoke the nearby sea.<\/p>\n<p>images courtesy of Lucas y Hern\u00e1ndez\u2013Gil<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wow wow-yellow\">CASAPUERTO interventions are handled like large-scale furniture<\/h2>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Originally discovered by an Austrian couple during a trip to nearby C\u00e1diz, the decaying residence quickly captured their imagination. Spanning three levels and organized around two internal courtyards, the building was magnificent and irregular in its preservation. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lucasyhernandezgil.com\/\"><strong>architectural duo<\/strong><\/a> of Lucas y Hern\u00e1ndez\u2013Gil and their team approaches CASAPUERTO as a series of minimal, precise operations. Each move restores dignity to the existing structure while introducing new layers.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The architects treat new interventions like large-scale furniture. Bedrooms, bathrooms, and even the two-level kitchen are added in forms that float within the original rooms, detached from the ceilings and preserving the historical envelope. This approach preserves the generous spatial rhythm of the house while accommodating contemporary needs.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>With its first phase now complete, the project will continue with the transformation of the upper floor into an artist\u2019s residence. As the house continues to evolve, it does so by weaving new life into the spaces between.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>the renovation, still ongoing, reimagines the 17th\u201319th century mansion as a contemporary family home<\/p>\n<p>the design team restores the building in parts rather than all at once<\/p>\n<p>focusing interventions where the structure is most fragile<\/p>\n<p>a subtle, time-rich collage of original textures and contemporary touches<\/p>\n<p>\t<!-- CLOSE ARTICLE CONTENT --><\/p>\n<div class=\"fullwidth-image\">\n<div class=\"layout-box\">\n<div class=\"page-content\">\n<p>the\u00a0blue-and-yellow tiled changing room features a semicircular bench<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>\t<!-- OPEN ARTICLE CONTENT -->\t<\/p>\n<p>the pool gives a cool response to the summer heat<\/p>\n<p>this water element remains usable year-round<\/p>\n<p>\t<!-- CLOSE ARTICLE CONTENT --><\/p>\n<div class=\"fullwidth-image\">\n<div class=\"layout-box\">\n<div class=\"page-content\">\n<p>the insertion of a pool is conceived as a contemporary therme within the heart of the house<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>\t<!-- OPEN ARTICLE CONTENT -->\t<\/p>\n<p>the pool gives a cool response to the summer heat<\/p>\n<p>palatial ruins and insertions coexist<\/p>\n<p>the thresholds of the home unfold in a series of zones marked by glimmering blue tiles<\/p>\n<p>the architects treat new interventions like large-scale furniture<\/p>\n<p>bedrooms, bathrooms, and even the two-level kitchen are added in forms that float within the original rooms<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>project info:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>name:<\/strong> CASAPUERTO<\/p>\n<p><strong>architects:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lucasyhernandezgil.com\/\">Lucas y Hern\u00e1ndez \u2013 Gil<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/krestadesign.com\/\">Kresta Design<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/krestadesign\/\">@krestadesign<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>location:<\/strong> El Puerto de Santa Mar\u00eda, C\u00e1diz, Spain<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>lead architects:<\/strong> Cristina Dom\u00ednguez Lucas, Fernando Hern\u00e1ndez \u2013 Gil Ruano<\/p>\n<p><strong>collaborators:<\/strong> Sara Urriza Nolan, Luc\u00eda Balboa Dom\u00ednguez, Ana Heredero, Daiwei Liu<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/architecture\/lucas-y-hernandez-gil-kresta-design-centuries-old-spanish-house-pool-preserved-textures-07-17-2025\/\">lucas y hern\u00e1ndez\u2013gil revives centuries-old spanish house with pool and preserved textures<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/\">designboom | architecture &amp; design magazine<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>lucas y hern\u00e1ndez\u2013gil revives decaying palace in el puerto, spain \u00a0 Architecture studio Lucas y Hern\u00e1ndez\u2013Gil, together with design studio Kresta Design, breathes new life into CASAPUERTO, a crumbling historic home in El Puerto de &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[142],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v16.7 -
