Conversion, restoration and connection of two apartments in a semi-detached house in Berlin, Germany.

The upper apartment of a two family house in the south-west of Berlin was rebuilt and restored.

The future pastor´s flat of the church community of Schlachtensee extends over the first floor and the attic floor of the semi-detached house. As part of the modernization measure the attic was expanded and a direct connection between the two floors was planned.

New stairs parallel to the existing staircase, starting in the kitchen and ending in the hallway of the attic, form the requested connection and simultaneously build the back of the redesigned, light kitchen. In addition the wall between kitchen and dinning room was demolished to achieve a generous and open living area.
