In the very heart of Barcelona, Plaça Universitat blends the city’s historic essence with its most contemporary rhythm. U4 Residences rises within this privileged setting as a bold, contemporary proposal, integrated into a 19th-century building. A project rooted in respect for local architecture, reinterpreted through a modern lens to create homes with a distinctive identity.
A distinctive vertical extension
The project adds two new floors to a historic corner building in the Eixample, located at the intersection of Ronda Sant Antoni and Plaça Universitat, completing its presence through a distinctive vertical extension that blends into the urban skyline. Burgundy coloured shutters reinterpret elements of the original architecture, establishing a subtle dialogue between past and present.
Heritage and modernity
U4 Residences emerges from an architectural vision that blends heritage and modernity. A proposal with its own language, inspired by Catalan and Mediterranean tradition, expressed through the selection of materials, textures, and a carefully curated colour palette. Developed by PERF, an architecture studio with an international outlook and a strong sensitivity to context.

The more private area includes a single bedroom and a principal suite with bathroom and dressing room, both benefiting from natural light provided by the interior courtyard
