The challenge was to create spans in the project, since the existing structure did not allow to transform the apartment into a loft.  Image Courtesy © Maíra Acayaba

The circulation gained fluidity, increased cross ventilation that enters both sides of the building. The social area also increased with the creation of a TV room from the enlargement of one of the three rooms. The rooms and the TV room are on the front facade, with the protection of the concrete brises characteristic of Copan. The kitchen and the dining room have been installed on the back facade and have natural light from the breeze blocks that line the building – however, hinged windows were added due to the intense wind on the floor.

Already the lighting was all apparent in galvanized steel pipes that run through the ceiling and the walls. The industrial language is reinforced in the interiors, on the customer-mounted shelf in steel frame and in the kitchen, with steel cabinets.

And the back bathroom in the new project has become a toilet for the apartment.
