COPAN - ROOM 3201

    The apartment in Copan building is an OSJ project made in collaboration with a German architect Julian Löffler who was interested in renovating the apartment and renting it overnight on the website 'Airbnb'. The rennovation relied on the change of a closet position in the hallway, leaving more room for a bookshelf with a glass bottom separating the bathroom, allowing light to enter in the bathroom.
    The billard removed in the renovation were used to make the furniture of the room (a high table, a low table and the bedhead.) The idea was to reuse the material and design furniture that would 'camouflage' the apartment. The room is on the top floor of the building and has a wide view on the city. To enhance this view and 'widen' the space, was created two mirror doors which can close to stop the light and open to reflect the view of the city inside the room.
