SELECTED PROJECTS
1.2 APARTMENT
The project was to design an apartment for a group of interns and professional artists. The interns were temporary residents while the homes of the artists were to be designed as of permanent residents. The key element of the design was to create spaces, both for the artists and interns, where they could interact and learn from each other. Unlike normal apartments, this one was specially designed for the artists and interns who keep changing every 6/12 months.
