ABOUT THE PROJECT
Square footage: 204 m² | two floors
Type of object: Single-family house
Type of project: Complete renovation
Year of design: 2020 | in progress
I admit that this time I don’t really know what to start with. With spatial issues, with dreams, with compromises? What is the main reason for the renovation?
Probably the main reason for the decision to renovate was that the three children share one small room and that they need to do something about it. But this reason is also accompanied by big dreams of being more connected with the outdoors. The five-member family lives on the first floor of a single-family house, while their granny lives on the ground floor. There is a beautiful garden behind the house, a large yard in front of the house and a large part of life, of course, takes place outside. Often relatives and friends come to visit and those of you in a similar situation understand how uncomfortable it is to run up and down the stairs to get this and get that. And while the wife is trying to be a great host, the husband would rather “tie her up outside” so that they can enjoy the company together.
The family had to confront important questions. Should they stay on the upper floor and arrange only the living quarters on the ground floor? So should grandma stay on the ground floor or should they build a new home for her? Should the grandmother live on the ground floor as she does now, and should they make additional rooms in the attic? Lots of combinations, lots of options, and lots of compromises.
After outlining many variants and carefully considering we/they have made probably the most rational decision. It brings a solution for space distress, it fulfills their dream with the inside-outside connection and it also represents a meaningful solution for the future.
