FOR MY BACHELOR’S DEGREE PROJECT, I WANTED TO CREATE HOUSING FOR STUDENTS, UNITING THE COMFORT OF AN APARTMENT INTO SMALL STUDIOS. EACH STUDIO (OR FLAT) HAS ITS OWN KITCHENETTE, BED, DESK, WARDROBE AND BATHROOM / WC. I TOOK ADVANTAGE OF THE INDUSTRIAL ARCHITECTURE WITH THE GLASS ROOFS AND THE HIGH CEILINGS TO SEPARATE THE COMMON AREAS AND PRIVATE SPACES (STUDIOS), WHICH EXTEND OVER TWO FLOORS. WE ACCESS THE BUILDING THROUGH TWO MAIN GLASS DOORS , AND FIND THE RECEPTION ON THE RIGHT. ENTERING THE COMMON AREA, WE FIND A SNACKING AREA IN THE CENTER WITH COFEE TABLES ON EACH SIDE. A GREEN CORNER IS THE CENTER OF THE SPACE, SURROUNDED BY STAIRS THAT TAKE US TO THE 1ST FLOOR. AT THE BOTTOM IS A LOUNGE AREA WITH SOFAS TO REST. THE COMMON SPACE FORMS AN OPEN SPACE, WITHOUT PARTITIONS, WITH A CEILING HEIGHT OF MORE THAN 6M, ALLOWING NATURAL LIGHT TO PASS THROUGH THE CEILING CANOPIES. ON BOTH SIDES OF THE COMMON SPACE ARE THE PRIVATE AREAS, ACCESSIBLE BY 2 DOORS ON EACH SIDE. THEY ARE SEPARATED BY A CORRIDOR FOR ACOUSTIC AND INTIMATE REASONS. I CREATED GREEN OPEN SPACES INSIDE THE COMMON SPACES TO BRING NATURAL LIGHT TO THE GROUND FLOOR. FINALLY, A GYM IS AVAILABLE TO STUDENTS, AS WELL AS A GAME ROOM. A LAUNDRY ROOM IS ALSO ACCESSIBLE IN THE BASEMENT. I USED WOOD AS THE ONLY MATERIAL, TO BRING OUT THE RUSTIC EFFECT OF THE BUILDING, AND TO GIVE A COMFORT EFFECT.

For my design object, I was inspired by the room decoration of the Hobo Hotel in Stockholm. I took the concept of a modular wall, but I created larger holes to put shelves. In my opinion, a modular wall is a very practical and useful architectural object, especially for young costumers ; it fits perfectly in my project. It is a fundamental object, which has a great importance in the architecture of s.g. flats. Hobo Hotel

FOR MY HOTEL ROOM PROJECT, I WANTED TO CREATE A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE : THE CLIENT MUST FEEL AMAZED BY THE ARCHITECTURE OF THE ROOM. TO DO SO, I WANTED TO CREATE CIRCULAR PARTITIONS WITH WINDOWS THAT GIVE WAY TO THE MAGNIFICENT VIEW OF THE VALS MOUNTAINS. I PLACED A MIRROR ON THE CEILING, TO HAVE A SENSE OF GRANDEUR, AND TO BRING MORE NATURAL LIGHT TO THE INTERIOR OF THE ROOM.

FOR MY PROJECT OF INDUSTRIAL RECONVERSION INTO APARTMENTS, I WANTED TO CREATE A SEPARATION BETWEEN PUBLIC SPACES (LIVING ROOM, DINING ROOM, KITCHEN), AND PRIVATE SPACES (BEDROOMS, BATHROOM, TOILET). I WANTED TO CREATE SMALL PRIVATIZED APARTMENTS IN THE TWO BIG ONES. THE FIRST (AND THE LARGEST) CONTAINS THREE SMALL “PRIVATE APARTMENTS”, EACH WITH A BEDROOM, A WARDROBE, AND A BATHROOM / WC. THE SECOND HOUSES A BEDROOM WITH ITS BATHROOM / WC ON THE GROUND FLOOR, AND ABOVE, A SECOND “PRIVATE APARTMENT” WITH ITS BEDROOM, WARDROBE, AND BATHROOM / WC. I USED JUST ONE MAIN MATERIAL : NATURAL WOOD, TO KEEP THIS RUSTIC LOFT EFFECT.
