This design originates from the residents' wish to revitalise their 1970s residence in according to contemporary needs while prioritising an optimal connection with the surrounding garden and terrace.
In response, a comprehensive renovation of the first-floor bathroom took place, alongside a meticulous reconfiguration of the entrance, staircase, cloakroom, and office space. A separate structure creates a garden pavilion adjacent to the main living area.

This pavilion has an open and transparent design, combining a rudimentary structure with refined materials. Its positioning and proportions are coordinated with the house's existing side facade. The natural silvery anodised aluminium structure features a frameless, clear glazed roof, elegantly juxtaposed with a base of red-pigmented poly-concrete.
The conversation pit transforms the aluminium pergola into a cosy sitting area complete with a wooden stove and fire bowl. During the warmer seasons, the outdoor kitchen serves as a welcoming bar where family members and friends can gather.
