Terraced house in Bouzas (Vigo)

The use of sweet chestnut indoors is becoming more and more common, as this house in the Bouzas district of Vigo (Galicia) shows, where it makes it possible to create functional, comfortable and welcoming spaces. Timber was introduced as a structural element through the sweet chestnut beams, in harmony with the natural character of the flooring, the staircase and the shelves. Chestnut reconnects with nature through its warmth and stands out for its great stability, with low volumetric shrinkage coefficients — a fundamental characteristic in the face of changes in humidity and temperature.
