Hotel Umbral is a 1920s building. The project born from a design statement: create a threshold or “umbral” in Spanish, which architectural concept gave the name to the hotel; It's replicated several times, in different ways and create transitions between different areas. The scenographical interior design use light and color, and a reinterpretation of the building original materials. Its restoration was an opportunity to create a dialogue between its past and its present. The essence of its original architecture is preserved without neglecting the new function but keeping the aesthetic balance
