House for plants is a renovation of a typical labourers house for a plant lover. The living room is separated from the main building volume by a greenhouse with an openable roof that serves as an extension of the living spaces as well as a nursery for plants in need of love and care. The horticultural reference is repeated on the first floor as a transparent separation wall between staircase and bathroom. A newly created void between kitchen and diskspace brings air and light deep into the building.
