Spanish design practice Company Studio creates the Na Mime House located in the town of Sa Ràpita in Mallorca, Spain. The home is right by the sea and is made to break down the relationship between the interior and exterior spaces. It features a series of interior courtyards to merge the spaces together with walkways that are enclosed by wooden blinds.
The ground floor is defined by bedrooms and the aforementioned courtyards, whereas the first floor has living areas that connect to an indoor and outdoor walkway. The roof of the house is complete with a plunge pool. Ventura speaks about the home to Dezeen, noting that "The urban limitations of the plot have led us to maximize the interior space, connecting it with the exterior horizontally and vertically through a system of porches and interior courtyards."
