Conversion of a two-family house in Küsnacht ZH

By removing an upper concrete beam, it was possible to create a floor-to-ceiling glass partition wall. With the handmade railing in the same black matt finish, it creates visual clarity and also serves as an eye-catcher in the house.

By moving a non-load-bearing wall in the kitchen area, the kitchen area was enlarged and the corridor was given a coherent shape.

The old, small windows were replaced with floor-to-ceiling, inviting glass. They make the light-flooded room feel more comfortable and the rooms appear more inviting.

The top floor is now used as a master bedroom with dressing room. A stylish glass partition wall in a contemporary industrial look offers a view into the living area.

The new bathroom for the parents and children. The top floor could be used as living space after a building transfer.

The aim was to implement the family's vision on the two floors: A clear room structure that offered space for the two children, but also met the parents' needs for a place of retreat.
