Schützenmatt Apartments Conversion
location: Zürich, Switzerland
client: Private
status: Realized
project: 2014–2016
A residential building from 1951 is located in a quiet Zurich neighborhood. The building, characterized by its recessed pitched roof, was carefully modernized. Kitchens and bathrooms were upgraded, and the generosity of the apartments was further improved by reorganizing the interior walls and combining three small apartments into two refined units in an intervention that demonstrates an intelligent balance between preservation and contemporary elegance.
