Townhouse with mansard and terrace in a 17th century house

The four-story townhouse with an area of 200 square meters is divided into two two-story apartments with separate entrances and exits. Designers tried to preserve the layout of the house, so they kept five-meter-high ceilings, a mansard, a terrace, a wine cellar and made the existing ceiling beams even more solid.

Both apartments are done in a loft style, which only emphasized the age of the house. Designers restored 17th-century wooden floors and restored red brick walls.

The kitchen finishes feature a lot of wood and brick – a dining table and kitchen island made of oak, red brick cladding on the walls. The color palette is restrained – black, white, beige. The space allows for everything and even more – two ovens, a wine refrigerator and even an ice maker.

The loft style implies a lot of open space without doors, so kitchens in the house flow smoothly into dining rooms, and dining zones flow into living rooms.

The living room has a lot of solid furniture: a large leather sofa, thick legs on coffee tables, large poufs. White walls serve as an excellent backdrop for various details of the interior, and an abundance of textiles brings comfort.

Plenty of daylight from wide windows and live plants in the living room soften the harsh aesthetics of the loft style.

Bedrooms, like all rooms in the house, are spacious (even too much). There is a lot of artwork and textiles made from natural fur and fabrics. One room leads to a walk-in closet, which allows not to clutter the room with dressers and wardrobes.

The bathroom more resembles a spa. Inside there is a sauna with a relaxation zone and a large shower cabin with a tropical shower.

The other bedroom is located right on the mansard. There isn't much space here, but there's plenty of light coming through the windows in the roof and a view of the city. One part of the room has a bed, the other part has a workspace with a desk.

The bathroom is large and spacious. There was room for a jacuzzi, washing machine, double sink and a 17th-century cabinet that designers restored.
