A plastered wall divides the room from the closet. Originally, the couple thought they’s only have one bedroom in the apartment, “but we are quite social,” says Jon, so they have an extra for visiting friends to stay.

The kitchen is composed of stainless steel, from the cabinetry fabricated by Barcelona company Timblau, to the counters and backsplash, the latter given a mirror polish for contrast to the former’s patina on the surfaces.
