Taking advantage of other projects experience in which we chose to put the social floor on the upper one, the exercise here went further, exploring the possibility of an all purpose room. It had to be, simultaneously, a living space, a kitchen and an office.To afford this, the project compressesthe twofloorsbelow to theminimum legal – with two bedrooms and a bathroom and expands the upper floor to the ceiling to containall the social spaces.
