Studio L
With a total surface of 34sqm and a few decades of neglect, this tiny apartment in Kreuzberg required a considerable amount of planning before anything could be done.
Accordingly with the owner’s budget, the flat was completely refitted to maximise functionality and storage space while still keeping a clean, minimal look.
The original beech floorboards were restored to their natural color; the small bathroom was redesigned to fit a large walk-in shower and a bespoke vanity countertop.
The partition that used to divide the kitchen from the main room was taken down to reveal a continuity between the two environments, giving the studio a roomier feeling: the kitchen countertop follows the corner and allows for further storage below.
The platform bed structure, made of durable lacquered grey MDF, hosts multiple extra functions: a built-in wardrobe and bike parking, plenty of extra storage and a desk surface.
