As a minimal flat, this apartment is not intended to restrict the resident's attitude to life, but to strengthen it. The focus lies in the formulation of the functions: The table in the centre as a place of creativity, conviviality and enjoyment. All around the essentials of life: the sleeping area, the cooking area, the bathroom, the entrance with storage space and a place to relax by the window. Since the apartment does not have a balcony, the interior should become the exterior. The base of the interior should be bright and reserved. The ceiling as a sunny yellow sky or awning should create the impression of spaciousness and the reflecting wall should have the function of a permanent brightener. Two levels divide the room where an armchair and the bed are accommodated. A place to think and rest. While lying down, you can look out through the shelf to the outside, where a magnificent tree stands directly in front of the façade. Despite the smallest space, what takes up most of the resident's time during the day should be given the maximum space and the daily routine reduced to a minimum. It was important to us to encourage reflection through the use of new materials and patterns. As much as possible, as little as necessary. We didn't want to give the residents the feeling of being locked away in a small apartment, but rather to encourage them to appropriate the place and develop their own point of view. The concept should polarize and show new ways. We are looking forward to the completion of this project development!
