Text details provided by architects. In the pre -19th century Foundry, in the center of the seated Griset, there is an apartment made of several rooms and whose layout can be considered somewhat disorganized and generous.
The purpose of renewal is to simplify the existing layout by consolidating support functions in one technical field at the second level, allowing the living space to be freed and the cross view is open. The first stage involves removing the walls of the old freight elevator, which is replaced by a double steel column frame, resonating the metal function of the pre -factory.
The newly opened place benefited the kitchen, which is spread over the pantry, which is now accessible through the opening of the pre -lift. The surface of a task appears to float, is suspended from columns, emphasizes the horizontal lines of the design and cleverly hides the fridge, the only vertical element. The dining area and double living rooms now take advantage of large windows that ignore the courtyard and its brick columns. In the area of ​​sleep, the corridor connecting the suit to the dining room is marked by a generous glass division, allowing natural light to flood the space.
In contrast, in response to the geometry of the room, a full -length mirror dressing rooms are installed.
