The Two Twigs Barcelona, Catalonia

Property Description

Nestled in the cool and creative district of Sant Antoni, a four-minute walk from the metro stop of the same name, this traditional Catalan apartment offers surprising interiors. Some features are exactly what you’d expect – intricately patterned tiled floors, wooden beams, and wrought-iron balconettes opening up onto the streets below. But for the most part, staying here feels like staying in a traditional Japanese apartment. We love this delicate melange of styles, creating a truly unique space for working and relaxing. Industrial touches, such as a table made from cement breeze blocks, contrast beautifully against natural, organic elements like the pair of twigs set into the very same table. Hanging fabrics create a calming zen vibe around the lounge, but in the dedicated office, there’s a sleeker finish with a long pale wooden table. When you’re in the mood to explore the bustling city rather than relaxing in your Japanese retreat, head down to the boulevard below. From here, you can walk east to the Gothic Quarter in just twenty minutes, or head up to Gaudi territory at the Passeig de Gràcia in the same amount of time.
