This project was the opportunity for unique design work. It was located in a former workshop transformed in the 1980s into housing near Geneva and Annecy. The space itself benefits from high ceilings and interesting openings; our task was to connect and define the different living spaces. Several wall openings were necessary to connect the rooms and create a coherent living space. Several wall openings were necessary to connect the rooms and create a coherent living space.

The entrance area provides access to the comfortable kitchen, the central room of the living area. The double high ceilings and large north bay window give a spectacular appearance to this space.

The existing staircase and its contemporary glass railing leads to the upper level, including the family living room and sleeping areas. The main living room, located to the west, is where the clients can watch TV or read on a winter evening in front of the fireplace. The upstairs living room is a relaxation space for rest and calm. Connected to the top level, the terrace allows a cool space in the summer. The owners of this house love to entertain and they wanted it to be a friendly and inviting place. The oak parquet flooring in all spaces leads us to the kitchen and then the living room.
