View of the light filled interiors of the building.
A simple, light-filled space with highly basic details evokes the traditional and accentuates the formal contrast with the other houses in the street. All the shared interior areas, including the entrance hall and staircase are treated with the same grey resin to create an effect of visual uniformity. A shaft of light from the ceiling vertically divides the space and provides additional light along with the existing windows.

The largely controlled material and color palette lend the building its unique vocabulary.
There are two home units on each of the three floors: a living room overlooking the road, bathroom in the central area and bedrooms on the sides of the small inner courtyard. Here the windows form an asymmetrical pattern of spaces and adjustable panels. The architecture originates from the poetic synthesis of very few materials - plaster, maple wood, galvanized iron, resin and stone - which express a clear language when articulated in all details of the design.
