Friedel -

In a former convent with unique charm, this small 14 m² apartment was completely redesigned to become a functional and bright pied-à-terre. The renovation transformed a dilapidated space into an ingeniously optimized interior: an enlarged mezzanine, a staircase integrated into an office with storage, a full kitchen, and a comfortable bathroom. The project plays on the complementarity of materials—birch plywood, oak, and white metal—and highlights the high ceilings with a sculptural railing inspired by ocean liners. The color palette alternates between a vibrant sky blue and graphic tiles for the technical areas, and a bright white for the living room, creating a harmonious and contemporary contrast.
