The apartment is an attic and its square meters yield less living space, so the family decided for an open plan configuration. The apartment was originally designed in the shape of cross-plan.

The connecting element in the apartment is a large, 12-meter long light, which was designed so that it can be switched on throughout the entire length, or by sections, thus lighting only a section, e.g. the kitchen.

Furniture is custom made, designed specifically for this attic apartment, which was full of irregular shapes and variable heights. In this way the niches were all filled with fitted wardrobes and storage spaces, which at the same time visually smooth out the space. The furniture is white in order to create the illusion of greater space and light. There are also a few accents in oak wood, an element characteristic of this particular region. The wood gives the interior a slightly Alpine feel, as well as the wooden flooring, which appears slightly rustic.
