Patio house of about 110 m² in Son Serra de Marina (Santa Margalida), by Vicenç Mulet (VMA Projectes), with an executive project by Miquel Serra (Negreta Arquitectura). Work April 2021 – April 2022. Designed as a tribute to Mediterranean and Mallorcan construction.

- Limestone in patio and walls, continuous terrazzo in situ, green ceramic in kitchen.
- Local unions: Vidreria Fullana (carpentry and glass), Rafael Miralles (locksmith); landscaping by Pere Bennàssar with native plants.
Relationship with the office
- Mallorcan fusteria — portassa and blinds.
- Ferro forjat — local locksmith.
- Sequer i canyissos — the canyís as a traditional object (author of the pergola per verify).
History
- 2022: finished.
- 2023: selected in the FAD Awards.
Why is indigenous design
It translates elements of the town house (portassa, blinds, canyís, patio) into an austere and bioclimatic home.
For the project
Theme “the Majorcan blind”: the house as a pretext to talk to local carpenters and locksmiths.
