This remodel of a mansard apartment for a young couple focuses on creating a simple and uncluttered space that feels both warm and contemporary. The layout presented unique challenges, but also opportunities to embrace natural light and emphasize openness. A restrained material palette—hardwood, concrete, and solid oak furniture—establishes a sense of harmony and durability. By stripping away excess and allowing materials to speak for themselves, the space feels both functional and inviting, a peaceful retreat shaped by simplicity.
