Kyoto In Spring

Kyoto In Spring: Catalonia

Inspired by Japanese design, this peaceful home in Barcelona’s Eixample Dreta neighbourhood is an ideal base for a couple or solo traveller looking to make the most out of the city's sun and sights while enjoying a serene retreat. We love the natural tones in the floor and furnishings offset by striking black accents in the beams and sofa, creating a zen-like space that invites endless relaxation. There’s a desk space here should you need to catch up on work and a record player to get evenings off on the right beat over a glass of Spanish wine. The bedroom, too, is styled with a pared-back Japanese aesthetic, providing the perfect canvas for a dreamy night’s sleep. The home’s crowning glory, however, is the large terrace equipped with a sheltered daybed, as well as a table and chairs. Whether you’re beginning your morning here over coffee or finishing the night with sundowners before heading out for a night on the town, you’re bound to find rest and relaxation in this outdoor haven. Outside of your home, you’re just a thirteen-minute walk from Gaudí’s impressive Casa Milà, a fifteen-minute stroll from both the city’s emblematic La Sagrada Família and Passeig de Gràcia, while Ciutadella Park is twenty minutes away on foot.
