The project
Through demolition and reconstruction, the project transforms and extends the end section of a farmstead. On the ground floor the spaces of daily life open towards the garden; the more private rooms are placed on the upper level.
The corten steel staircase is the material heart of the house: suspended treads spring from a core clad in reclaimed bricks. The same metal shapes the fireplace and links living room and kitchen.
