This project combines the character and original materials of the building with a contemporary spatial organization, establishing a dialogue between heritage, modern living, and the surrounding landscape.

Located on the ground floor of a historic building on the shores of Lake Geneva, this project brings together two existing apartments to create a bright and cohesive living environment. The renovation emphasizes the direct relationship between the living spaces and the lakeside landscape, creating open and airy day areas that extend toward the garden. The kitchen maintains both visual and physical connections to the lake, opening onto the living room as well as the outdoor spaces, encouraging fluid circulation and convivial everyday use.
