Maison S+L in France by Le Duff and Girard

Le Duff and Girard created this 3-bedroom house with plenty of space, volume and light. The project is located in a new traditional housing area, where the architects found their inspiration in the surrounding traditional architecture — the house “icon” — but then they doubled it.

Each house serves one purpose: day or night. The slated house, the one that is 2 feet higher than the other houses the bedrooms whereas the wooden one is the main living space. Nestled between the two houses, a small unit with a flat roof links the spaces together.
