Area: 30 m2 GFA

A small street level unit was transformed from a jewelry shop to an office space. With its big window, high ceilings and historic stucco, the unit provided great potential for its future use.

The new concept was to reduce the material and colour palette and to work out the spatial qualities in order to make the most of the little room given. In a first step the rooms were freed from drywalls, ceilings and cheap floorings that had been wildly installed over the last decades. The backroom was then divided by a new wall hiding a toilet and serving as the backdrop for the new tea kitchen.

The rooms were dipped in monochrome medium grey paint and matching linoleum floorings, creating a cozy and sophisticated atmosphere. Contrasting anthracite furniture such as the kitchen, the back office and the bespoke 3.5m long centrepiece table were combined with oiled oak chairs and subtle lighting.
