Triplex Abel Hovelacque

Above a cinema, behind an entrance hidden in the façade, the apartment occupies the 3rd and 4th floors like a house perched on the rooftops, with two terraces, one of them planted with a tree in open ground.

We wanted to draw out its essence: a breathtaking view and calm, as if cut off from the city. Two prefabricated timber extensions (35 and 15 m²), craned over the building, set out a hierarchy of spaces, frame the views and connect the terraces.

The 35 m² kitchen opens through a 6 m pocket window onto the main terrace, erasing the boundary between inside and out. Upstairs, the bedroom and the study each open onto their own terrace. A set of outdoor stairs leads to a 50 m² roof terrace.
