Ferrátur is building a detached single-family home located in the municipal district of Andratx. The property will have a built-up area of 2,600 m2. The project management has been entrusted to the firm Riutort Arquitectos S.L.P.
Project description:
The house will also have a swimming pool tiled with Gresite Bisazza, a hot tub, Turkish bath, gym, wine cellar, barbecue and indoors and outdoors vertical gardens.
On September 17 the COAIB inaugurated the exposition at the Nit de l’Art (Art Night) of the project that won the contest organised by the COAIB for the fourth year running. The award-winning project was “Xarxa” (Net) by the firm R Arquitectes. Grupo Ferrà has been one of the partner companies in this year’s contest. The project was on public display at the Paseo del Borne until October 7, coinciding with the World Architecture Week. The students of the Philharmonic orchestra of the Balearic Islands offered a brief string concert at the closure ceremony, which was very well received.
Some months ago, we started this new construction project in Palma, which is still ongoing, under the supervision of project managers B3 Arquitectos.
Blending seamlessly into its surroundings
Located a mere 10 minutes by foot from one of the most famous coves in the island and with a built surface area of 708.40m2, this property will comprise a main residential building distributed over 3 floors (ground floor, first floor and basement).
It has a reinforced concrete structure, with ceramic brick exterior walls. As far as the aesthetics are concerned, this building has been designed to seamlessly blend into its Mediterranean surroundings. Therefore, its façade is characterised by the presence of large picture windows combined with an exterior synthetic resin mortar rendering and natural stone cladding.
Roominess and brightness everywhere
The large aluminium and SCHÜCO glazing picture windows on the walls allow for a perfect integration of the indoor and outdoor areas of the residence. In this same spirit, the use of Zarzi grey natural stone floorings both indoors and outdoors enhances the harmony of all its spaces.
These design features, as well as the lacquered wooden doors and windows, all combine to increase the feeling of roominess and brightness in all its spaces.
Ideal for every season of the year on the island
Thanks to its exterior thermal insulation system, ducted air conditioning and radiant floor heating, this property is designed to provide a warm and welcoming environment throughout the year.
As an example of the complexity and exclusivity of this project, this residence will offer large terraces and landscaped areas, as well as the following amenities:
Grupo Ferrá would like to thank the architecture firm B3 Arquitectos for entrusting us with the construction project for this residence, and interior design firm Negre for the pictures that they have provided, offering a glimpse of the residence’s look and feel once the construction and decoration projects are completed.

Increasingly, more and more people choose environmentally friendly buildings and construction processes. Buildings that blend into their natural environment. Respecting it and making good use of its resources.
A good example of this trend is this new single-family home project that we are building in the centre of Majorca.
Self-sufficient and perfectly adapted to its environment
With a built surface area of 496,22m2, a swimming pool with a surface area of 218,36m2 and a plot of land of approximately 27,098.38 m2, this house blends both aesthetically as well as functionally into the vineyard surrounding it. Furthermore, its large picture windows take in as much natural light as possible, in addition to offering sweeping views over the Tramuntana mountain range.
This will be a self-sufficient property, given that it will be supplied by a solar panel field and a private well. The electrical, air-conditioning and telecommunications systems have been designed to achieve the maximum level of energy and environmental efficiency.
All these features, together with the high-quality home appliances that it will be equipped with will turn this property into an ideal escape from daily life, perfect for relaxation and enjoying the island's natural environment, while having a minimum impact.
The advantages of building using a metal structure
The innovative metal structure of this building allows us to create roomy and welcoming spaces. This feature will also allow us to use constructive and architectural elements that blend in with the surrounding environment. In turn, this will also increase the sustainability of the buildings.
Modern, minimalist and very natural: this is what its interiors will look like
The property will include a main residence built around a central courtyard and two bedroom annexes. These last ones will have their own private outdoor areas.
The main building will be divided into day and night areas. The day area will include a large double-height living room, an ample kitchen and a dining room. The night area will consist of 3 double bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms. In addition to having their own bathrooms, each bedroom will have their own private lounge areas.
The living room, dining room and main bedroom all have direct access to the swimming pool, which is L-shaped. Lastly, the swimming pool will lead to the vineyard through a footbridge spanning the pool.
At Grupo Ferrá we are proud to contribute to change and improvement through our commitment to sustainable construction processes and materials. We would like to thank architect Luis Ladaria and architectural technician Joan Brunet for entrusting us with the construction of this wonderful project.
Located on a plot of land of 265 m2 at Bossería Street, this Art Nouveau building was erected in 1904. The total built surface area is 1,289.54 m2.
About the building’s renovation
The structure, roofs, interior decorative elements such as ornamental and construction features characteristic of the period when it was built will be carefully preserved.
The renovation project aims to upgrade this Art Nouveau building to comply with modern habitability, sanitary and energy efficiency standards. Likewise, the renovation is focused on showcasing all the Art Nouveau details, such as the spaces, floorings, tiles and woodwork.
In this context, it is of paramount importance for Grupo Ferrá to protect all these elements while we carry out our new intervention using different materials that highly contrast with the existing ones.
This is what the 7 apartments in the building will look like
Once this phase is completed, Bosseria will have 7 one-of-a-kind apartments. Some of them will have sun-drenched terraces on the rooftop, offering sweeping views on the city, while others will have inner courtyards and picture windows overlooking the adjoining streets.
The apartments will have floorings made of restored antique tiles, as well as exposed wooden beams and false ceilings with crown mouldings in an Art Nouveau style. Spaces will be open and well-lit, and the kitchens and bathrooms have been designed with clean lines, white surfaces and elegant fixtures that will lend these spaces a modern and minimalist touch.
All apartments will be equipped with high-quality home appliances and the electrical, air-conditioning and telecommunications systems have been designed to achieve the maximum level of energy and environmental efficiency.
At Grupo Ferrá we feel particularly grateful for the chance to contribute to projects, such as this one, which are focused on giving a new lease of life to buildings that are part of our history, while preserving all the features that reflect the passage of time.

Today we would like to tell you about our new construction project, which has already started and is located at the Sol de Mallorca Housing Development, in Calvià. It consists of a single-family home designed by Jochen Lendle Architects.
U-shaped structure
This project comprises a rectangular main building for residential purposes, which will be built on top of 4 adjacent spaces constituting the ground floor. The layout and shape of the 1st floor and ground floor create a U-shaped structure.
This structure will be primarily built out of steel and reinforced concrete, with large picture windows designed to allow a maximum amount of natural light into the residence. Foundations are projected to include isolated and combined footings under interior pillars and with an eccentric continuous footing with a strap footing solution and braces under the walls.
The whole structure will have thermal insulation made of high-density extruded polystyrene.
The property comprises an infinity pool, a garage, a living room with a chimney, indoor and outdoor dining rooms, a kitchen, several bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms and balconies, office areas and a library, a games room and a wine cellar.
Materials used are inspired by the local natural environment
In line with the local natural environment surrounding the property, natural materials will be used, such as oak wood in indoor areas or natural “Santanyí”-type limestone and/or “marés” sourced from Felanitx quarries in certain areas of the façade. Likewise, outdoor windows and doors will be made of natural colour aluminium and masonry walls will be stone clad.
Integration of indoor and outdoor areas
One of the main goals in building this residential unit is to harmoniously and seamlessly integrate both indoor and outdoor areas. To this end, both the residence's flooring and that of its terraces will be made of lime microcement, partial indoor/outdoor bamboo wood flooring and/or industrial parquet flooring, as well as hydraulic tiles.
All of the above, together with the use of glazing with the maximum mobility in areas leading to the main garden and the swimming pool, contribute to create a perfect harmony between indoor and outdoor areas.
Open spaces without privacy loss
The use of fixed and partially fixed glazing increases the brightness, roominess and integration of the residence into its environment. On the other hand, the glazing in the living room and the ground floor multi-purpose rooms can be fully opened or closed, thus preserving the occupants’ privacy whenever required.
At Grupo Ferrá we are extremely proud to add the construction of this residential unit to our project portfolio comprising high-end residential new builds in Mallorca.
A project developed by the Jochen Lendle Architects firm, with Eduardo Orell as architectural technician.

In addition to us, the company Corallisa Signature Homes and Toyota España co-sponsored the event.
Last but not least, we would also like to express our utmost gratitude to the entire team of Diario de Ibiza (coordinated by the Event & Relationship Manager Mariana Chacón) for their outstanding work, as well as to Golf Ibiza and all the professionals that made this day a huge success.
