Perched atop the city's heights, this project renovates a building from the 1930s and 1950s. Guided by natural light, the design emphasizes the use of raw materials such as reclaimed bricks, stone, Corian, wood, and wood fiber insulation, enhancing thermal mass and comfort. Special care was given to the existing structure: old doors, several walls, glass brick windows, select furniture, moldings, and solid bricks were preserved, restored, and repurposed.

On the ground floor, the original layout was largely respected but optimized to create brighter, more open spaces. The master bedroom, now larger and more luminous, features a dressing area and a workspace. The children's bedrooms, more spacious, each include built-in storage and a custom-designed dressing area. The central hallway, illuminated by a skylight introduced through a ceiling glass roof, connects these rooms. A second glass roof, aligned with the first, naturally lights the bathroom.

Upstairs, all partitions were removed to redistribute the spaces and maximize natural light. The load-bearing wall, partially opened, retains and exposes the original bricks in their raw state. The renovated and reconfigured attic now includes a mezzanine with additional storage. An opening in the mezzanine floor allows light to flow between levels, creating both a visual and physical connection. A white lacquered steel staircase links the two levels, ensuring a seamless and fluid transition between spaces.
