Text description provided by architect.
The former technical space is transformed into a ticket office and a small bar. The obstructed narrow room is stripped down to its bare minimum, the disruptive partitions are gone, the beams are let out.
A concise set of interventions is then performed. The walls are cladded in white tiles with a subtle chessboard pattern and flirtatious pink joints.
The discontinuous ceiling is painted in blue, doors and window frames are touched with a tint of light green.Every surface and element are self-contained yet complimentary.
However, the room is disrupted by an impudent object. A striped counter of black and white marble is placed both precisely and bluntly.
The long dapper box is slightly tilted and takes up the entire space.
The well-dressed counter accommodates a small kitchen, a bar, a multitude of cabinets, and a ticket machine.
The same tabby box occurs at the info point, concluding a sporadic, though consistent intervention.
