01 — The brief
A fourth-floor family apartment with a bare terrace above it. The brief: calm, warm rooms for three generations, a dedicated spiritual nook, and a roof that becomes the family’s favourite room.
We began with a master layout for the apartment and the terrace, then took each area in turn: scope of work, a single line of intent, and a board of annotated references. Where a room could go two ways, we drew both. The palette runs through the whole home: soft lime-washed walls, natural linen, curved edges, and terracotta as the recurring accent.
