A design-centric office
Can you imagine a space in the middle of the city where you can connect with nature? Architect Laura Montero (Inlau ArchDesign) and her colleague Àfrica Sabé have made it a reality.
Laura Montero’s (@inlau) studio Inlau ArchDesign and her colleague have turned a listed building in the heart of Granollers into a home designed so that the whole family can comfortably enjoy the city. It’s very important for them to make the most of the outside space, since the family is used to living in a rural environment. Moving to the city meant that they had to introduce a space surrounded by nature into the home. The building’s restrictions made this requirement a huge challenge for the project. The result? An incredible terrace bursting with personality. Want to discover all the details? Keep reading.
The aim was to totally transform the space, working with materials and finishing touches as if it were a 100% outdoor space, although it’s really an indoor space which can be closed off. The entire day area opens onto this terrace which acts as a transition area between the kitchen and the living room and the real outdoor area which opens onto a lively square.
The furniture and decoration chosen for this space is characterised by neutral and natural tones. On the terrace, the protagonist is the Tucson corner sofa which is made with eucalyptus wood and UV-resistant leather. To add even more personality to the space, they decided to add the Inka coffee table.
Green and more green… this was a must-have colour. Hanging plants and plants on the walls and in pots were a great idea in order to enjoy nature in the city. The round natural jute rug and the Saht pouffe provide the finishing touch they were looking for. It’s without a doubt the perfect place to relax and enjoy time with family and friends.
What seemed to be impossible at first is now a dream come true. Did you like project? Find all the furniture and decorations used here and recreate your own outdoor (or indoor) space. Who cares!

When you purchase a new furniture item, mattress, kitchen, rug or curtain, you pay an eco-participation, which is used to fund the recycling of your old items.
What is eco-participation?
Eco-participation is an additional fee added to the price of new bedding and furniture, paid by the consumer and transferred to Ecomaison.
Why?
It is used to fund the sorting, recycling, and repurposing of old mattresses and furniture.
How does it work?
Ecomaison implements collection and recycling solutions in partnership with local authorities, social economy organizations (such as the Network of Recycling Centers and Emmaus), and furniture professionals.
Since 2013, through this initiative, Ecomaison has already handled over 10 million tons of used furniture and bedding, preventing the landfill of waste equivalent to 1,000 Eiffel Towers. Previously, 55% of discarded furniture ended up in landfills. Ten years later, it's less than 3%. With 800,000 tons per year, Ecomaison is now the leading supplier of recycled wood in France.
Who is Ecomaison?
Ecomaison is a state-approved eco-organization that manages the sorting, collection, reuse, and recycling of household items and materials, from the foundations to the finishing touches. Its mission is to collect and repurpose household items and materials, giving them a second life by donating, repairing, recycling, or using them as an energy source.
