Each intermediate landing is conceived as a space with its own identity, housing areas designed for different uses: an office, a meditation and exercise area, and even a storage area for bicycles.

From the entrance to the attic dwelling, every detail has been carefully thought out to create a warm, functional and aesthetically timeless atmosphere.
