Laboratory of Living

The Laboratory of Living was originally a garage or a storage space. It was located in the 19th district of Utrecht, Netherlands. The Dutch designer Rolf Bruggink, founder of Studio Rolf.fr transformed this garage into a living space for two occupants. The designer chose to make it a relaxing and urban type atmosphere by his choice of room lighting and a convincing mix of materials and his use of available space. The warehouse originally featured two story's, with a garage door on the ground floor, which is now completely glazed and a window on the top floor, which is executed as a zinc-clad bay. In order to make optimal use of the two floors, all new additions such as the bathroom, kitchen block and wall units were accommodated on the three closed wall faces. The dominant materials were rough wood, zinc, plaster and re-exposed brick masonry. The color scheme is essentially restricted to white, black, and shades of gray.
