Apartment Renovation: Exclusive area 60㎡
Transforming a room in a housing complex over 50 years old into a space with maximized area efficiency.
Before the renovation, the traditional Japanese tatami room was updated to a child’s room with hardwood flooring.
To make the most of the limited space of a single room, a loft was incorporated into the design.
The upper level of the loft serves as a bedroom, while the lower level can be used for studying or creative activities, creating a versatile layout.
Through dialogue with the residents, the upper-level bedroom was designed to feel as spacious as possible, resembling a loft-like atmosphere.
Additionally, a dresser space was planned in the originally existing storage closet.
