The project involves the refurbishment of a 200 sqm second floor of a mixed-use building for short-term rental accommodation. The design follows a restrained and functional approach, maximizing spatial efficiency, while creating an interesting and visually appealing common access area, through color and different materials and textures.
A minimal material palette was adopted to optimize materials and achieve visual clarity. The circulation areas and the kitchenette are entirely finished in a muted green tone — applied uniformly to floors, walls, ceilings, and metal elements, providing a stark contrast with the bedrooms, which feature a lighter palette of white and natural wood.
The client requested a functional, low-maintenance space with a welcoming and efficient atmosphere, suited to temporary stays. The design responds with a restrained and rational approach, maximizing spatial efficiency while avoiding unnecessary subdivisions.
This intervention is part of a broader effort to renovate a derelict building that had fallen into ruin. Its recovery not only preserves the built heritage but also plays an important role in revitalizing the surrounding urban fabric. By repurposing an abandoned structure, the project encourages responsible densification and counters urban decay. From a sustainability perspective, rehabilitation is a more environmentally conscious alternative to new construction, significantly reducing waste and resource consumption.
Key constraints included preserving the existing structure and ensuring full accessibility throughout the space. The layout was optimized to improve circulation and comfort, respecting the building’s original configuration.
Each room includes a custom-built storage module in painted metal and wood, integrating wardrobe, desk, and shelving into a single open and functional unit. Prefabricated components and on-site assembly further minimized construction impact.
