The architectural studio added a second floor and expanded the basement in order to have three fully-fledged floors. To do so they had to demolish all the existing lift slabs and erect them once again. The roof became accessible and two staircases were added, one of which leads directly to the roof. All the interior elements were handmade using Birch plywood, Pine wood. Floors were covered in porcelain stoneware for a durable effect. All windows guarantee thermal insulation since temperatures might drop to 20 degrees below zero.
