Industrial meets Refined in a Loft in a Former Garage, France


Situated in the industrial portion of Bordeaux, France, a former garage has been turned into a gorgeous modern loft by Italian designer/architect Teresa Sapey. Sapey divided the building into two principal zones, public and private. The public zone, designed for receiving guests and socializing with friends, consists of a kitchen, a wine cellar and a guest bedroom.

The wine cellar's circular shelves are perfect for accomodating bottles and groups of bottles in varying sizes. The motif continues onto the ceiling where the circles become recessed lights.

A hand towel is intelligently mounted where the user can find it with eyes full of water, without reaching up so that water runs down the arms, and it's done beautifully, too.

Industrial concrete is refined by a smooth buffed finish, footlights, and a linear drain, along with the latest shower technology, including rain head and a handheld unit.

...And what would a converted garage be without... a garage? Private, clean and fully modernized with optical-illusionary art. One would expect no less than a work of parking art from the architect who designed parking for the multiple-starchitect Hotel Puerta América Project (Madrid).
