Ausiàs Marc 19, Quadrat D'or, L´Eixample Dreta, Barcelona

A Modernist Masterpiece Redefined in Eixample

We are excited to present this stunning property, located on a high floor (fourth floor, sixth real-height level) in the prestigious Quadrat d’Or, Dreta de l’Eixample. Situated on Barcelona’s iconic Cerdà grid—which concentrates the city’s most valuable representation of modernist architecture—this home offers a perfect combination of natural light, elegant design, and an unbeatable location. Thanks to its south-facing orientation, the apartment is flooded with sunlight throughout the day, providing charming views of the neighborhood’s historic facades.

The Design Philosophy: Fluidity & Light

The layout revolves around a central vision: maximizing the available surface area to create fluid, continuous spaces boasting abundant natural light and cross-ventilation.

The traditional boundaries between the kitchen, dining, and living areas dissolve into a harmonious sequence of textures and planes, elegantly guiding you from the social spaces to the private quarters. Every transition is calibrated to make moving through the home an experience rather than a simple passage, expanding the perception of space far beyond its physical limits.

Premium Materials & Meticulous Craftsmanship

The aesthetic is defined by a deliberate, minimalist sobriety, prioritizing impeccable execution over mere ornament. Every detail has been thoughtfully designed, featuring flush baseboards, shadow profiles, and precisely fitted custom carpentry. The short and precise material palette was chosen specifically for its premium quality and beautiful aging characteristics:

The Kitchen: Serving as the home’s centerpiece, the kitchen features high-end appliances seamlessly integrated with custom cabinetry. It is crowned by a striking, green-veined Paradise Green quartzite countertop. Adjacent to this area, the dining room, with its warm wooden furniture, serves as the central anchor of the home.

Flooring: High-end Avawood Essence smoked oak planks (300 mm wide) run throughout the apartment, visually unifying the space.

Bespoke Carpentry: Custom wardrobes and wall coverings are crafted from 1.5 mm tinted natural oak veneered MDF, ensuring a perfectly uniform grain.

Bathrooms: Seamless Mortex microcement creates a continuous, jointless oasis in the master en-suite, while handcrafted Winckelmans ceramic mosaics add timeless character to the second bathroom and guest toilet.

Premium Fixtures: The design is tied together with a curated selection of matte gold titanium JNF hardware, sleek Jung LS990 switches, and precision Arkoslight technical lighting.

Layout & Versatility

The property features two elegant en-suite bedrooms: one comfortable single room, and a larger master bedroom boasting direct access to a private balcony. Additionally, the layout offers a versatile multi-purpose space that can easily be adapted to suit your lifestyle—whether as a third bedroom, a private home office, a creative studio, or a cozy reading nook.

Eco-Efficiency & Technical Excellence

Behind its historic mid-20th-century facade lies a state-of-the-art, highly efficient infrastructure. The home’s thermal and acoustic envelope was significantly reinforced during the renovation process:

Insulation: Outer walls were reinforced with interior laminated plasterboard lining and 5 cm of high-density rock wool.

Windows: Original exterior openings were replaced with brand-new, double-glazed wooden carpentry with insulated air chambers.

Climate Control: The property features a 100% electric, Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) aerothermal heat pump. This centralized system handles heating, cooling, and domestic hot water with outstanding seasonal efficiency (330% for heating and 425% for hot water), translating to exceptionally low energy consumption.

Thanks to these sustainable interventions, the property achieves an impressive Energy Rating C (60 kWh/m²·year of non-renewable primary energy consumption and 10 kg CO₂/m²·year of emissions)—a remarkable feat for a rehabilitated historic building.

The entire renovation was designed and directed by Circular Studio, a premier Barcelona-based architecture and design firm.

An Unbeatable Location

With an exceptional location surrounded by upscale restaurants, high-end boutiques, and convenient everyday services, this home offers a unique luxury living experience where contemporary, world-class design meets the charm and convenience of Barcelona’s vibrant center.
