When we stripped la Dominique we found an attic with many volumetric possibilities thanks to its hidden gable roof.

We unfolded a traditional slab covering the inner area of the apartment. This platform fragmented the lecture of the whole volume into two levels and therefore generated two scales within the dwelling: one extremely human, limited by the platform at 2,20 meters, in which we placed the entrance and the wet areas –kitchen and bathroom–; and the other scale offered by the spaces in contact with the façades. These last ones multiply their height by reaching the original sloped roof.

The dividing east wall absorbs the bathroom and the kitchen cabinet as if they were dilations in the wall itself; created by different depths that linked together through different white textures envelopes. The dividing west wall is kept clean, with the only disrup-tions where the micro-perforated iron staircase rests. A crude iron sheet of 5 mm divides the kitchen bar from the stair.

In the top floor the enclosures are resolved with a tubular iron frame with a cellular polycarbonate sheet, allowing a variable and flexible relationship between the mezzanine and the lower space.
