There was an enormous amount of rehabilitation work done in this project both on the façade, due to its special protection within the framework of listed buildings in Madrid, as with other interior elements, such as the rear staircase, which was decided should be restored on account of its beauty.
Cleaning tasks were carried out on the facade, restoration of the existing ironwork and replacement of the carpentry, to comply with the regulations, while at the same time maintaining the aesthetics of the originals.

Another unique space was the entrance hall. The access door was restored and an intermediate glass door was installed as a windbreak. A space for mailboxes and a reception area was also created.
In the main staircase, one more flight was added to access the under roof. The layout of the original staircase was followed, but with the steps seen from below and with illumination, thus creating a differential element from the original.

The pool is a new element that was incorporated in the basement. The width of one of the corridors was used, allowing the original masonry walls to be seen. The lighting was installed using LED strips in the false wooden-slatted ceiling.
In the recovery of the central courtyard of the building, restoration work was carried out on the carpentry, façades, original fountain and flooring. Vegetation was also incorporated.

The building has 2 dwellings per floor that face Zorrilla street and occupy the entire back of the building. The living room is arranged around the large windows of the main façade. The main rooms look upon the central courtyard and the secondary rooms, some bathrooms and the kitchen overlook the secondary patios that are in the common wall with the other buildings.
Two dwellings were built in the attic, with a living room, kitchen, 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms each. The roof structure remains visible in all the rooms. The lounge area is located in the southernmost part of the floor, where skylights were installed on the roof to better illuminate the space.
