House in Caimari

Restoration process of a village house in Caimari, Mallorca.

This is an old house built with stone masonry walls and clay soil, with intermediate partitions made of sandstone. The house was renovated in the seventies by closing spaces, using Portland cement on the walls, plastic paint and ceramic tiles on the floors, which over the years caused moisture retention in the walls, peeling plaster and paint, unhealthy atmosphere and bad smells.

In the first phase we removed the cement mortars from the walls and eliminated the partitions, recovering the original space.
