Project

Cafe Renovation and Transformation into Cultural Hangout Spot

The pictures represent the old state of the cafe before renovation.

Concept 

 

A Cultural Cafe is an establishment where customers can consume food and drinks while being exposed to a certain culture, favoring client-client relations as well as client-artist relations.

This project is built around a musical stage, where startup bands get their chance to perform and share their art. 

The whole cafe is centered around the stage and is connected by the same metallic structure that creates the ambiance and fulfills different other roles: lighting, tables, stairs, sound system and so on...

This structure envelops the space and gives it a unique identity and character.

Project

Conceptual and Technical creation of a Chalet on the coast

Concept 

 

The client of this project being a photographer guided the architect to adapt the concept to the client's artistic and day to day needs. Photographers see things differently when it comes to the subjects they capture. They follow a composition of tiers, and take into account the frames and the filters they use. Hence my concept, which is based on a composition determining the spaces in 2D plans and on frames determining them in volume. The most important functions are placed on the guidelines of the composition, the frames highlight each volumetric space and the filters determine the degree of privacy in each space.
