Amazing bright and dynamical flat by architect Richard Guilbault
This flat is transformed by architect Richard Guilbault from a very dark rooms difficult to fit out.
The flat spread out 30 square-meter and was redesign as the requirement of a young couple about a dynamical and bright living room, to optimize the use of the private rooms and to maximize the possibility of storage space. With the new space organization, the living room takes up 2/3 of the living surface area (instead of 1/3 before) and enjoys the light coming from the four windows of the flat.
The bathroom is comfortable and takes up only 2,3 square meters. Discreet and intimate, the new sleeping space hides a voluminous storage chest. The bed makes an atypical and comfortable space, like a cabin. A wall of storage runs along the complete length of the flat.There is punctuated by four niches and a game of contrasts between white and birch plywood front panels. This multipurpose piece of furniture, the backbone of the flat, absorbs all the practical needs of the apartment: electric panel, storage, appliances, pantry, fridge, wine cellar, TV, dressing room and so forth. The apparent connections of the former walls have been highlighted by a white concrete filling to tell the history of the flat.
