End-of-Terrace House

The Schäfers have realised their dream of owning their own home in the form of an end-of-terrace in a popular residential location close to the University town of Tübingen. The design exhibits ingenious use of space with bright rooms and a flexible-use gallery under the roof. The contemporary design of the entrance with its raised platform and a glass roof as protection against the weather conveys the first impression,the business card, if you will, of the house. Although you can see right through the whole house to the garden, it is only when you pass the stairs and the kitchen entrance that the spacious, light living/dining area opens up. A wall slab separates this area from the open kitchen. It also serves as additional space for fitted cabinets and the oven. A breakfast bar creates the connection to the dining area. The ground floor is a largely open, well laid-out space of 89 square metres.
