Black Pearl House and Workshop, Rotterdam

Architectural firms Studio Rolf and Zecc Architects are responsible for the radical renovation of a century old row home in Rotterdam. With split level interiors, they manager to expand a narrow space and encourage a new flow of space. Part of the success comes in what they’ve avoided – doors, railings, and other trappings of the traditional home interior. Through subtracting, rather than adding, the positives of the Black Pearl House and Workshop are accentuated and the home becomes an exercise in individuality. (via We Heart).
