Recently, Mat Apartment, a project jointly completed by Francesc Rife and Mª Jose Delgado, tried to create a living atmosphere in harmony with the surrounding quiet environment. Based on this, the facade and the natural landscape of the building were reversely derived, and the symbolic image of impressionism was associated with the specific living place.
Natural wood work is the most important formal language of Mat Apartment. No matter the continuous wood work facade, or the nodal approach of vague grille or slot, a single material shows the purity of space. As for the living room area, the wooden frame structure with a certain scale variation creates a visual internal frame view, which echoes the natural seascape of Uruguay's Punta Del Este behind the semi-veiled flowing white gauze.
Located about 300 kilometers east of Montevideo, Punta del Este is a popular tourist and summer resort with lush trees, beautiful beaches and beaches. The sensory experience of "comfort, relaxation, nature and enjoyment" matching the environmental attributes is an important source of inspiration for designer Francesc Rife. Such delicate and subtle perception is exactly reflected in Mat Apartment.
