A cosy urban maisonette for a young couple looking to make the best out of the busy city life. The material palette of the project was formed aroung the idea of a warm and welcoming home that would serve as the users' refuge at the end of a busy work-day. Part of an existing block of apartments, this residence was divided into two levels, the lower one for all the (semi)public functions -living-room, kitchen, dinning room, lobby, guest wc- and the top one for the couple's private quarters -bedroom, study, wardrobes, baths.
