Located on Calle Hermosilla in Madrid’s most prestigious neighborhood, this mixed-use building redefines urban luxury living through the integration of residential quality, street-level vitality, and architectural refinement. The project comprises eight serviced apartments across five floors above a sophisticated café-restaurant that activates the ground plane.

The architectural approach balances presence and discretion. The facade employs warm stone, bronze-framed glazing, and deep-set balconies planted with greenery, creating a rhythm that responds to the neighborhood’s traditional scale while expressing contemporary materiality. Each residential floor features two spacious units with floor-to-ceiling windows, private terraces, and integrated storage systems designed for both permanent living and extended stays.

At street level, wolfblanc crafted the interior concept for the café-restaurant—a luminous space defined by natural materials, custom millwork, and a seamless indoor-outdoor connection to a discreet courtyard. This ground-floor program was conceived not as a separate tenant space but as an extension of the building’s identity, offering residents a refined amenity while contributing to the neighborhood’s social fabric.

The rooftop features a private terrace with pergola structures, outdoor kitchen, and panoramic views toward the city skyline—a shared amenity that transforms the building from a collection of units into a curated vertical community.

Hermosilla demonstrates how contemporary urban development can honor context, elevate daily life, and create value through design intelligence rather than excess.
