This urban dwelling is located in a street with a definite aesthetic value. The existing valuable outer wall from the 1930s was therefore preserved to ensure integration into the street scene. The mansard roof was given a contemporary interpretation: the line of the existing cornice was preserved and converted into a space.

The rear building was knocked down and replaced with a similar space that was then given a change of direction. The space was drawn up transversely instead of along the garden wall.

This created an intimate patio in the fold of the building that formed a link between old and new.

There is a rectilinear relationship between the front door and the walled garden. Inhabitants move along this axis from open to closed, from large to smaller spaces.

Living spaces are located in the new building that folds around the garden wall, giving maximum view of the city garden. The interaction with the garden is enhanced by the complete glass area in the rear building.
