Communicating the living room with the kitchen and dining room and achieving an open, modern space with personality is possible. This room project demonstrates it.
This is the proposal of the architects of the room, Sandra Rodríguez, and Rebeca Campo, to achieve a unified, modern, functional, and very personal space. It is a living room connected to the dining room and the kitchen or a kitchen open to the living room or an environment with several areas that also manage to integrate the hall.
Whichever way you look at it, the interior design project for this apartment on Calle Menorca in Madrid has a different air. A diaphanous and spacious room is achieved with functional furniture and under the creative prism of color, light, and expression.
The starting point was a blank canvas. The decoration has nods to the cinema, also a Nordic air and a vintage touch, thanks to a Soviet fan that the owners wanted to keep. Also playing a role was the sentimental value of a painting of the Italian coast, the place where the owners were married.
The result is worth seeing: a single room where details matter, materials are mixed and the strength of yellow illuminates and warms the room.
Living room, dining room and kitchen in the same space
All in one because in the same space the living room, the dining room and the kitchen coexist, delimited but open, and in only 50 square meters.
In this shot you can see the continuity of the environments in a canvas in very bright neutral tones.

The dining room is located between the living room and the kitchen, in a “passage area”, which is why light furniture has been chosen, although delimited by a rug.

The kitchen
In the kitchen, RdeRoom customized the bar that already existed when they took over the project. A cantilevered bar was designed and the area was completed with several stools, all in natural wood.
bar detail
The idea of the bar was that it could also be used for work but it is perfect for breakfast or a drink while the cook finishes the dish in the kitchen.
The kitchen, also integrated in the hall
The kitchen, open to the room, is also integrated into the hall since it is the first room in the house that you find when you enter.
