Another staircase connects the living room the basis of the upper level, where four holes in the floor give the room a cross-shaped geometry. Above are the bedrooms. Ends travel up the stairs to the terrace located on the roof.





Some architectural elements of the structure and simultaneously perform the function of furniture and other functional objects. A neutral color scheme helps to create a single multilevel space, which can lead the dynamic, open and transparent way of life.
