Reading

The attic of the houses used to be a misterious place. They treasured objects that modern life ostracised. Memories of the absent were kept there, as well as old stuff that was no longer useful. Children went up there to uncover secrets or to dress up in old clothes during Carnival.

 

Casa Lourán has an attic that has been transformed into a small reading lounge. The secrets and misteries remain hidden between the paper pages.

Some anthropology and photography books that explain life, ancient books that have been in the house for decades, novels or poetry are at the disposal of anyone willing to enjoy reading in a rainy day. A small wicker crib also stores varied storybooks for children.
