The usage of the existing spaces was maximized by using carefully positioned and designed furniture that allowed overlapping functions in some areas: hatches, beds in cupboard, sliding doors, … A new dormer provides extra light on the top floor, while a hammock turns the room into a place of peace and rest. A large opening in the wall connects the stair well with the living area. There are outside areas on all floors: a small city garden on the ground floor, a roof terrace on the first floor and a cozy lounge between the sloping roof panes.
