Many acquaintances criticized her decision, but Martha understood her plan perfectly and in just a year turned the garage into a house of 126 square meters, which is much larger inside than it looks from the outside.

In addition, Martha is a well-known architect. And from the very beginning, she understood how to remake the building to suit her needs.

The facade of the garage remained practically unchanged.

Martha wanted to keep the authentic style.

The gates have been removed, and instead the architect has installed a “secret” door that completely merges with the wall.

The limited space left the woman with only one available maneuver: build up.

At the same time, the house retained the appearance of a traditional two-story building.

One floor was deepened, only windows were left above the ground. On the floor there is a utility block and a living room with a wood-burning stove.

Part of the floor on the upper floors, like the ceiling on the last, has transparent inserts. This makes the room visually even more voluminous. In addition, Martha tried to minimize the use of walls and partitions.
