President
CENTRAL office for architecture and urbanism
Maxime Delvaux
A roof pavilion with two terraces extends the living environment of an apartment towards the city scape.
President is an extension of a private housing in Brussels. The flat roof of a 3-storey building has been privatized. A structure of 8,25 meters by 10 meters is anchored in the party walls. The roof pavilion offers a living space, a kitchen, sanitary facilities and a laundry room. It connects to the renovated apartment below by a 4,25 meters high spiral staircase. Two separate outdoor spaces are created. On the south, a large terrace opened towards the city scape doubles the surface of the pavilion. On the north, an intimate terrass allows air circulation during hot days.
