Ecological duplex in an old button shop

Ivry Sur Seine is traditionally renowned for its rich industrial heritage and for its large-scale rehabilitation projects. Just a stone’s throw from the Seine, in the rapidly changing district of Ivry Port, stands this old button shop with walls steeped in history and stories.

The common garden of this condominium is a place of meeting, exchange, sharing. It creates the conditions for a life turned towards nature within a close-knit community where mutual aid and benevolence reign. It is within this charming place, accessible by elevator or from a passageway on the first and last floor that this duplex loft totaling 92m2 takes place.

This unique place bathed in light at all hours of the day has been shaped by its owners with a concern for ecological well-being. A large-scale architectural project that took up the challenge of combining noble and warm materials with the industrial heritage made of metal frames and concrete floors. Bet won.

The entrance opens onto a vestibule, a real decompression chamber inviting you to take off your shoes before entering the premises. A cloakroom that also serves as a laundry room and an independent toilet are accessible from this space. A glazed sliding door opens onto the fitted and equipped kitchen area, entirely made of solid wood. This place of sharing also offers the possibility of accommodating a dining table.

A step separates this dining area from the main living room of 29m2 with a cathedral ceiling facing west and decorated with a wood stove. A bathroom and a first bedroom also complete this level.

The floor is accessible from a custom staircase made of oak and steel. We discover a mezzanine of 27m2 currently composed of a sleeping area with custom storage, an independent toilet and a bathroom with bathtub. The original masterful metal beams pay homage to this place with a strong industrial past. An ecological insulation was carried out, offering a rare comfort of life in this type of habitat. An outdoor parking space located below this loft completes the set.
