"Gambey, an interior project by Paf atelier and BB architectes, occupies a compact apartment in Paris's 11th arrondissement, where living spaces are reorganized around a central mezzanine. Rather than reading as a series of separate rooms, the dwelling is experienced as a continuous interior shaped by a single constructed volume that gathers circulation, storage, and programming into one cohesive framework."
"Designed by Paf atelier and BB architectes, the intervention is fabricated from orange-lacquered steel profiles infilled with perforated sheet metal panels. Its cross-shaped geometry extends laterally at the mezzanine level and vertically from floor to ceiling, organizing areas for sleeping, working, cooking, and living while remaining spatially open. Perforation density varies across the panels, shifting between finer and more open patterns. These surfaces register changing light conditions throughout the day while maintaining visual continuity between spaces."
Gambey reconfigures a compact Paris apartment around a central mezzanine, treating the dwelling as a continuous interior shaped by a single constructed volume that consolidates circulation, storage, and programming. A freestanding, cross-shaped steel structure rises through two levels, establishing vertical presence and organizing movement across the plan. Fabricated from orange-lacquered steel profiles with perforated sheet-metal infill, the structure defines sleeping, working, cooking, and living zones while remaining visually open. Perforation density varies to filter views and modulate daylight, creating softened silhouettes and subtle shadow patterns across floors and walls without subdividing the plan.
