26 Copper Cottage COPPER ARCHITECTURE FORUM 32/2012 Architects team31 explain the rationale behind contemporary interventions to a traditional Luxembourg village house.
The owners of this 19th century cottage in a small village north of Luxem- bourg decided that they would retire there. The house, as it was, had the charm of an old cottage but did not offer the required comfort for a main residence. The attached barn was being used as a garage and shed and the idea was to transform this huge empty volume into a new living room with a kitchen - and to alter the existing cottage as little as possible. Various considerations influenced our design. The existing cottage has very small windows which give uninteresting views of neighbouring buildings, roofs and streets. The owners wanted views of their own property, gardens and the landscape. The existing stairs in the cottage were narrow, too steep and considered to be dangerous. It was decided that they should be replaced with wider and less steep staircases for safety and comfort. COPPER ARCHITECTURE FORUM 32/2012 27 Photo: Paulo Lobo – Luxedit
