Mother of nine, known on social media as @7paresdekatiuskas, Paloma has converted this charming home into a family retreat where the warmth of home blends with the serenity of the Asturian landscape. This transformation not only reflects her love of decorating, but also her commitment to creating a cosy and functional space for her large family. To carry out this project, Paloma relied on Aparici, using our wood-effect porcelain stoneware tiles, Norway Oak model, to cover the floors throughout the house.

The story of ‘La Casina’ is a story of love for family and nature.
Paloma and her family were looking for a place to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city, a place where they could reconnect with the tranquillity that only the natural environment of Asturias can offer. ‘La Casina’ has become that special place, a refuge where every corner reflects Paloma's personality: rustic, cosy and full of life. For Paloma, every detail of the house had to be perfect, from the materials used to the decoration chosen, all with the aim of creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere for her large family.

The renovation process of ‘La Casina’ was a journey full of inspiration and carefully thought-out decisions.
From the beginning, Paloma was clear that she wanted a floor that was not only aesthetically pleasing, but also hard-wearing and easy to maintain, taking into account the needs of a large family. After exploring various options in shops and at exhibitions, Paloma decided on Aparici's Norway Oak tiles, known for their durability and natural look. ‘I loved the design and quality. I wanted a rustic, timeless style that would blend in perfectly with the natural surroundings of Asturias,’ says Paloma.
The choice of tones and textures was key to creating the atmosphere Paloma wanted in ‘La Casina’. The neutral, warm tones of the wood-effect porcelain tiles not only bring a sense of warmth to the home, but also make them easy to clean and maintain, which is essential in a house with nine children. ‘I chose these tones because they are easy to maintain and blend in harmoniously with the rest of the home's décor,’ Paloma explains. This approach ensures that the flooring in ‘La Casina’ is not only beautiful to look at, but also practical for the day-to-day life of her bustling family.

Functionality and aesthetics came together perfectly in ‘La Casina’.
The process of installing the tiles was as rewarding as the end result. For Paloma, seeing the floors come to life with the Norway Oak design was exciting. ‘Each room was transformed into a warm and welcoming space, just as I had imagined,’ shares Paloma. The tiles bring a rustic and natural feel to the house, perfectly complementing the decorative style Paloma was looking for: a balance between traditional and modern, where wood takes centre stage, but without the hassle of maintenance.
The result is a home that invites you to relax and enjoy the natural environment that surrounds it.
In ‘La Casina’, every detail has been carefully selected to create a space where aesthetics and functionality are in perfect harmony. ‘So far, I have not had any problems with the tiles in terms of breakages or cleaning difficulties. They have proven to be resistant and of high quality,’ says Paloma. This durability is especially important in a busy household like hers, where the floor has to withstand the constant coming and going of a large family.

For Paloma Blanc, the transformation of ‘La Casina’ has been a dream come true.
This home not only reflects her passion for decoration, but also her love of family and nature. With Aparici's choice of materials, she has managed to create a space where warmth, durability and timeless style come together to offer a perfect retreat in the heart of Asturias. ‘La Casina’ is now a place where family moments become indelible memories, and where each member of the family finds their special corner to relax and enjoy the beauty that surrounds them.
But the story of ‘La Casina’ does not end here. For Paloma, decorating is an ongoing process, a way of expressing her love of home and her dedication to her family. ‘I am always looking for new ideas and ways to improve our space. Decorating is not just an aesthetic thing; it's a way to make our house feel like a real home,’ says Paloma. At ‘La Casina’, every object, every piece of furniture, every detail has a special meaning, a purpose that goes beyond the purely decorative.

Not only do they look beautiful, but they have also stood up to the intensive use that comes with having a large family,’ she says. This satisfaction with the end result is a testament to Aparici's commitment to excellence and attention to detail, values he shares with Paloma in his approach to creating a home.
