Near the Garnmarkt area, this project is situated on a residential street characterized by relatively informal, small-scale development. The new building was constructed on the eastern part of the site to preserve trees and allow for a large garden on the western side. Facing the street, the building features relatively small, evenly spaced windows, establishing a connection to the local neighborhood while ensuring an appropriate level of privacy.
The ground floor houses a spacious central area for cooking, dining, and living. Zoned areas with distinct functions and qualities are created by a tiled stove and various built-in furniture pieces. Additionally, an open-plan space vertically connects this zone with a generous gallery on the upper floor. Facing west towards the garden, this area opens onto a covered seating area in front. Providing a seamless transition between interior and exterior spaces, a floor-to-ceiling, two-panel lift-and-slide glass door serves as an interface.
