info

A shop in an old mansion. A shop over all the stories. From the basement until the top floor. Removing the floor enough to let everything together be a retail store. Returning the back façade enough to unite all the floors by a simple staircase. Removing all the unnecessary decoration from the past. To celebrate the beautiful traces of old plaster. That’s it: just enough to make a difference.
