Livermore: new build apartments in El Morlaco, Málaga

Every home has its own pool, kept clean by salt electrolysis, a system that makes the pool’s chlorine from dissolved salt. The pool is finished in non-slip porcelain, lit by LED lights on an automatic control, and edged with synthetic wood decking for loungers.

Dark wood units, an island topped in natural stone and a graphite stone worktop, with a Quooker tap that gives boiling, sparkling and filtered water. An 80-centimetre induction hob with its extractor built in, an oven, a microwave, a dishwasher and a tall fridge-freezer are included. The kitchen ceiling is 2.60 metres high.

A stainless steel barbecue, an outdoor fridge and dishwasher behind matching panels, a porcelain stone worktop and a built-in wine rack.

Wall-hung toilets with a bidet spray, glass shower screens and a shower head set in the ceiling, with taps in matt black. The basins sit on cabinets of hand-carved oak, under mirrors that light up and stay clear of steam. The main bathroom walls are lined in porcelain panels 2.7 metres tall.

Porcelanosa porcelain tiles 120 centimetres square on the floors inside, and the same tile with a non-slip finish on the terraces.

Underfloor heating, with air conditioning through fan coil units in the bedrooms and in the kitchen, dining and living area. Hot water comes from an aerothermal unit, which draws its heat from the outside air. A ventilation system brings in fresh air through a fine filter that stops pollen, spores and dust, and solar panels on the roofs generate electricity.

Anthracite aluminium frames with a thermal break, an insulating strip that stops heat and cold passing through the metal, and double glazing. The frames are kept slim in the living room, dining room and main bedroom. The living room terrace has a bioclimatic pergola, a roof of louvres that tilt automatically to let the sun in or keep it out, and the blinds inside are motorised.

A KNX system by Schneider controls the lighting, the blinds, the pergola, the heating and cooling room by room, and the pool lights, from screens in the home, a phone app or a computer. It also sends an alert if it detects a leak or smoke.

An alarm, infrared beams across open windows and doors, panic buttons in the home and in the bedrooms, and a high-security safe.

Solid wood doors with matt black handles, and one key that opens the home, the storage room, the garage and the shared areas. The fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms are lined in wood and lit inside. A laundry room has its own units and sink, with a Miele washer and dryer or Gaggenau machines.
