When thinking about contemporary design, the first thing that comes to mind is the sleek, almost minimalist interior design of certain homes, often crowned by statement pieces of art or lighting fixtures.

Alexandre-de-Sève Town House: When Heritage and Contemporary Meet. Restoring a 19th-century house while retaining the heritage and creating a contemporary addition is quite a challenge. The original 60 m² building has been fully restored and converted into two apartments: a two-floor 4 ½ and a 3 ½ on the second floor.
