The project concerns the extension of a house dating from the end of the modernist period. Its interior is even more characteristic of the art déco style. This small semi-detached house laying on a rather small ground could only be enlarged by means of an increased part.

One of the particularity of the house is the large staircase coiled up in the front facade. The staircase provides to the house a high quality and functionnal spatial system. So we decided to extend it to the new raised level and to lay out a bathroom and a dressing-room in the front part of the extension and two bedrooms in the back. The bedrooms face a large terrace and can be connected thanks to a sliding panel. This arrangement allows the visitor to see the entire length and width of the space which is then understood as a fluid and luminous unity.

Rehabilitation and reconversion of industrial buildings into mixed-use buildings : Chapeau 62.

10 apartments from 130 to 350 m² + graphic design office + lhoas & lhoas office and an art galery.

The project involves the redevelopment of an interior part of the a block located between the Chaussée de Forest and the Vanderschrick street of Saint-Gilles : a rehabilitation and conversion of industrial buildings.

This project is pretty emblematic of how Lhoas&Lhoas consider the technical, budgetary, functional, aesthetic, human and heritage... Helping to provide access to quality and affordable housing for middle income people, Chapeau 62 is a collective project that develop systems for coexistence beyond individualism, proposing a project decidedly urban and rich in a balanced mix of features, leaving an island within its state of canker...

Here are some elements of the context of this project, since the discovery of the place until its complete transformation.
