Transformation
of a church into a loft.
How to use traces of the old for the benefit of the
new? The so called ‘collective feeling’ of a church was the reason to design an
open living floorplan (loft type). Echos of sacred forms were the inspiration
to design the cooking island and other furniture. The old wooden church floor is reused as wall cladding in order to give
the big open space an intimate feeling. The floor panels have not been interfered
with, so authentic traces of use in church are still present.
