The golden opportunity to live in a piece of art.
The best address in Madrid is now Montalbán 11. With a total of 10 exclusive homes behind a spectacular classic facade with more than 100 years of history, this magnificent duplex represents the unique opportunity to be part of an unprecedented project in Spain. The historical importance of the building, protected by the Historical Heritage of Madrid; the comfort and luxury provided in its rehabilitation; its privileged location due to its proximity to El Retiro Park and the cultural epicenter of the city; and the perfect combination of art and architecture, achieved in collaboration with one of the greatest representatives of modern and contemporary art, Carlos Cruz-Diez, make this a unique initiative and the first of its kind in Spain.Montalbán 11 is destined to become an icon of contemporary architecture and a true artistic heritage for the city of Madrid. Its privileged location in the neighbourhood of Los Jerónimos, one of the most desirable areas of the capital, could not be more appropriate. Located in the well-known Art Triangle, Montalbán 11 is close to the Prado Museum, the Reina Sofía National Museum and the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, all of them of worldwide prestige. It is the ideal location for a building that features new works by international artist Carlos Cruz-Diez, both in the apartments and in the common areas. This is the artist's first project of this magnitude for a private building in Madrid and in Spain.Located on the first floor of the building, the exclusive home has a wonderful entry of natural light thanks to the large south-facing window. Inside the main floor there is a spacious living room and the living area, both with double height. The kitchen, fully equipped by Poliform and Gaggenau, has a large dining room. The sleeping area is on the upper floor with two large en-suite bedrooms, all with Poliform closets. The house also has the latest Bang & Olufsen home automation technology: blinds, video and audio system, security camera, video intercom, alarms, Lutron lighting.Montalbán 11 enjoys magnificent common areas that include Health Club with aquatic spa, Klafs Turkish bath, swimming pool and Technogym gym. Wine cellar, interior garden and spectacular interior design, technical and security alarms, concierge service and robotic parking.The Chromatic Ambience that Carlos Cruz-Diez has created responds specifically to the configuration of the spaces of the Montalbán 11 building in Madrid. He has designed a route made up of unique and unrepeatable pieces. The tour begins with a mural Mur d'Induction Chromatique à Double Fréquence Montalbán 11 that transforms according to the viewer's distance and the changes in the ambient light.This mural installed in the entrance lobby leads to the elevator from whose cabin the visitor will have the opportunity to contemplate an Ascenceur Chromointerférent Montalbán 11 that evolves along the way. Given the monotonous function of going up and down, Carlos Cruz-Diez has conceived a Chromointerférent that not only changes along the route, but also changes on each floor. To this end, he has designed eight different harmonies that constitute eight different paths to individualize each of the building's floors.The tour ends in the apartments with an original Transchromie of 8 numbered copies, designed in three different chromatic harmonies. In view of all these considerations and many more, the artist believes that the "Ambientación Cromática" project meets all the conditions to turn Montalbán 11 into an authentic artistic heritage for the city of Madrid.
