Cometa Architects Designs Barcelona Apartment with Hand Fan Layout
By
Cajsa Carlson
A five-star bake. Worth schmearing, sharing, saving.
Summary
Cometa Architects designed Éventail, a 162-square-meter Barcelona apartment with a unique 'hand fan' layout that unfolds around a central staircase. The project features circular cutouts to showcase a historic brick ceiling and is filled with tactile details including white pebbles that match the lighting. The design metaphorically represents a traditional handheld ribbed fan opening in sequence.
