Conversion of an existing warehouse into a 7-unit apartment building
Stuttgart, DE 
privat commission
2025- Ongoing

What was once a warehouse for an auto parts wholesaler, located in the middle of Germany’s Autostadt, had gradually lost its relevance.
The building, reconstructed after the war in reinforced concrete, was structurally designed to carry loads of approximately 3-4 kN per square meter. This robust structure provided a significant degree of flexibility for the conversion.
In order to maximize daylight and improve the spatial organization of the new apartments, the existing staircase was replaced. A new staircase was introduced in a more efficient location, freeing the façade for living spaces and allowing the interior layout to fully benefit from the available daylight.
