When we visited it for the first time, the house was uninhibited and looked sad. The original building was lost, spreading itself in multiple annexes over the land plot. Our objective was to keep alive the memory of the main house, with some minor intervention on its exterior.

The “wave Apartment” project’s main challenge was the reorganization and hierarchization of spaces.Located on the seafront, on the eighth floor of a typical 70s building, and with fantastic views. However, it did not take advantage of this due to the excessive compartmentalization that conveyed a complex environment that was difficult to interpret.
