Iñigo Aragón and Pablo López Navarro founded Casa Josephine Studio in Madrid in 2012 after completing degrees in photography, art history, and fashion design. The couple purchased a family country house in Sorzano, in northern Spain's Rioja region, thirteen years ago and fully remodeled it, then renovated and reorganized the decoration two years ago. The 300-square-meter house features color-blocked rooms, built-in niches, and frescoes by architect and muralist Elvira Solana. Decoration emphasizes a feel-good atmosphere through color, furniture, and textiles rather than a curated selection of design pieces. The house operates as a bed and breakfast with five guest bedrooms.
"Today Pablo and Iñigo are taking us on a tour of their country house in the tiny town of Sorzano in northern Spain's Rioja wine region. "We bought the house 13 years ago, remodeled it completely, and did a renovation, rethinking, and re-organization of the decoration two years ago," Pablo wrote to us via email. It's airy, cheerful, and impeccably designed, with color-blocked rooms and frescoes by architect and muralist Elvira Solana."
""Rather than focusing on a selection of design pieces, we wanted the decoration to create a feel-good atmosphere," Pablo adds. "Colors, furniture, and textiles are chosen following that idea." Best of all? To everyone's luck, the couple operates the house as a bed and breakfast, with five guest bedrooms available for stays. "It is a country house, and we wanted to be very respectful to the pre-existing architecture and to the context where the house is," Pablo says."
