After renovation, kitchen, dining room, living room and balcony have become a single space, allowing different possibilities of use in day to day. The subtraction of part of the walls provided, besides the visual permeability, the best air circulation throughout the social area.

different colors and textures: wood, concrete, white and blue.

interaction between living and dining room. The furniture is support for electronic
appliances, drawers, bar and living sofa. Already at night that furniture works as a
