Durietz Design & Development designed and renovated the Camp Roig 31, a totally unique townhouse in the heart of Alaró on the foothills of the Tramuntana mountains. Camp Roig 31 is a 600+ m2 townhouse with a sun-bathed 410 m2 courtyard overlooking the Alaró twin peaks and surroundings.
The house, built in 1910, was original as a halfway house for crops and meat from a large possession outside the town and has now been restored and upgraded into a modern big family residence with all the luxuries one could expect, with 5-7 bedrooms, 5 baths, wine cellar with its own house wine, 10x4m pool, garage and much more. The house has many antique charming details like two stone fireplaces and wooden carvings, but probably its main feature is the airy roofed terrace with arched openings to the private expansive backyard and mountain views.
The original architecture of the house was subtle but with curtain standout features, leaving them with plenty of room for new interpretations without desecrating the soul of the house. They saw the house fitting perfectly in a toned-down art deco-inspired theme mixed up with a strong Mallorcan heritage. They worked with dramatic shapes created with natural materials and an earthy palette both inside and out. This all the while not losing the utilitarian roots of the house.
