Of generous dimensions, the apartment covers the whole floor of the building in which it is integrated. Around a stairwell placed in the middle of the building a highly partitioned apartment develops with a complex interior circulation zone. The restoration covered the entire apartment, from the total refurbishment of the kitchen to the creation of new compartments such as a storage room, an additional bathroom and a suite with a walking closet. The revitalization of the circulation area should be stressed with the creation of a big cabinet in the entrance hall followed by a backlit wine cellar, on the way through to the kitchen. The wine cellar has special empowerment since it is like a rack that underlays the entire wall of the corridor, transforming in an unexpected way a secondary area of the apartment.
