I sometimes get asked whether a piece is available in better condition — and I understand the instinct, but it's usually the wrong question. The chip on the foot of that vessel, the fade on that shade, the corner of marble softened by fifty years of hands: these aren't the price you pay for buying old. They're what you're buying.

A room where everything is flawless looks like a showroom, however good the pieces are. The eye needs proof of life — one thing that's clearly been somewhere, held by someone, used for decades before it arrived with you. Reproductions can't fake it.

The only rule is the line between wear and actual damage. A softened edge, an old repair, a faded chintz — character, live with it happily. A wobbly leg, active flaking, a crack that will travel — a project, walk away. Everything on the right side of that line makes the room better, not worse.

House and Gallery by Guillermo Santomà in Barcelona, Spain (2021)

Originally part of the Maggi pasta factory in Poblenou, the 680 m² industrial space was transformed into a residence and new Barcelona location for Side Gallery, retaining its existing structure while introducing a series of sculptural architectural interventions.

Rather than dividing the interior with conventional walls, freestanding architectural elements organize the space as sculptural volumes. A pavilion separates the gallery and more public areas from the private spaces, while the winter garden provides another layer between the different parts of the house.

The owner Luis Sendino’s collection of furniture and artworks is freely distributed throughout the rooms, allowing the interior to constantly change and turning the house into a testing ground for new arrangements and ideas.

Architecture: Guillermo Santomà @sguillermos
Photography: Maxime Delvaux @maxdelv (2-10), Ricardo Labougle @ricardolabougle (1, 11-16)

A Somosaguas, Pozuelo de Alarcón, es troba “La Macarrona”, una casa projectada als anys 70 per un geni de l’arquitectura: Fernando Higueras. Autor també d’edificis tan icònics com la Corona de Espinas o el Rascainfiernos.

La casa va ser un encàrrec de la bailaora de flamenc Gloria Ocharán i el pintor Alfonso Fraile. Volien que semblés que la casa volava, com una bailaora, i la van batejar “La Macarrona” en homenatge a una gran del flamenc, Juana Vargas.

A “La Macarrona” l’estructura és la protagonista, és funció i és estètica. Els seus voladissos recorden a les construccions tradicionals japoneses.

Ara, el galerista Luis Sendino ha adquirit aquesta joia de l’arquitectura i ha encarregat a Guillermo Santomà la seva rehabilitació. L’objectiu de Santomà és depurar l’interior per captar l’essència de l’espai.
