The challenges with designing this old apartment of three decades comes in the form of height and poor interior management. Standing at 2.68 m, the maximum height under the beam is 2.13 m which in turn presents an overall vibe of constrain. The modification has given it a new look, giving more space for some sun and additional greenery inside.

Power of nature channels its way into the house, with mineral paint done from the floor to the wall and extends all the way inside. Different shades and textures of grey shows up through with the use of mineral paint in concrete grey as well as spray-on paint in some sections.

Functional elements of the cabinets are wrapped under a discreet black leather exterior. Magnetic rails get paired up with lighting kits for the ease of operation and ambient versatility, both on and off work. An arc-shape mezzanine here pulls a double duty – on one side it serves as a TV wall and keeps wires and cables in place, and it also turns into a tuck-away spot in the house to relax.

Greenery and a view outside are always visible at different parts of the house, while different heights in the ceiling makes great use of the space for different visual experience.
