Paloma Bau Renovates the Casa Ona Nodding to the Sea
Amy Duong — November 7, 2024 — Art & Design
Interior design studio Paloma Bau has taken on a renovation project that transforms the Casa Ona. The project is defined by its new textured tiles and exposed surfaces along the historic home located in Valencia. The house was originally built in 1925 and the studio worked to elevate the dark space to transform the home into a modern and functional home.
The founder of the studio Paloma Bau speaks to Dezeen about the design process, sharing "Casa Ona is an ode to the sea and Mediterranean fishing traditions. It's a home inspired by its beaches and traditional architecture, adapted to the owner's lifestyle. Textures, natural materials and neutral, calm tones coexist with colour and traditional elements that pay homage to the owner's maritime origins."
