Building Within Existing Fabric: Row House Zurich
Renovation, Transformation
This row house from 1890 has been renovated to create a modern living comfort while preserving its historical character. The building structure has been reinforced, both the foundation and the timber beam ceilings have been reinforced. A new staircase with a light and open construction connects all floors, which have been reorganized to create spacious living areas and a direct connection between indoors and outdoors. The bathrooms were integrated into the existing structure to meet new comfort demands. A bright color palette and natural materials bring a contemporary atmosphere while keeping or reinterpreted historical details.
