"One of the biggest challenges was our limited budget. We had to restore the house while spending as little as possible and we managed to pull it off by designing, building, and installing the kitchen ourselves, for example. We even did all the plumbing work. We also restored the vintage cement tiles in the living area, removing a ceramic tile layer from the early 2000s, a layer of glue below it, and linoleum in other parts of the house. We removed paint too. It's almost like we were archeologists removing all the different layers of history."
"We worked with basic and inexpensive materials such as the iron shelving in the kitchen, which was bought in an industrial park, pine wood boards, and affordable textiles," they say.
"It was their first home together (they lived there for a decade but have since moved) and it is where they began their careers, laying the foundations for their award-winning work."
