Spanish architecture studio Fran Silvestre Arquitectos has completed the renovation of interior of a penthouse in Costa Blanca, Alicante on the south eastern coast of Spain. 

Called Penthouse, white and grey-toned colours are combined with dark wooden fixtures and black-colored furnitures in the interior to create a striking contrast. The project consists in the refurbishment of a penthouse located in the Costa Blanca of the Mediterranean Sea.

The main floor, articulated in a single room, seeks continuity between the kitchen, the living room, the terrace and the landscape. On the upper floor, where the night area is located, the master bedroom opens out to the sea through a terrace and has a large dressing room that meets each one of the clients' preferences.

In order to delimit the spaces different elements are used. On the one hand, the staircase, made of white stone, conceived as a sculptural element that, together with the kitchen as furniture, allow the use of spaces. 

On the other hand, a black stone element includes the humid areas and serves to configure the space of the master bedroom. Boosting the views of the Bay of Altea becomes the last and most important element of this proposal.
