About Residential Building هوسپيٽيلٽي اندروني ڊزائن

رهائشي عمارت جرمني جي شهر Ueberlingen ۾ ڍنڍ جي ڪناري تي واقع هڪ 17هين صدي جي عمارت لاءِ اندروني ڊزائن پروجيڪٽ آهي. اهي عمارت 1957ع کان هڪ ريستوران جي حيثيت سان استعمال ٿي رهي آهي. تزئين نو (Renovation) عمارت جي تاريخ کي محفوظ رکندي پائيدار طريقا اپنائي ٿي. موجود سپورٽ ساخت کي بحال ڪيو ويو، ۽ تاريخي فرنيچر کي نئون مقصد ڏنو ويو. پراڻن ڪاٺ جي شهتيرن ۽ نشانن کي اندروني حصي ۾ شامل ڪيو ويو. بار واري حصي ۾ نيري رنگ جا شيڊس ڍنڍ جي رنگن جي عڪاسي ڪن ٿا، ۽ وڏيون ٿيل درين ذريعي پاڻي جو کليل نظارو نظر اچي ٿو.

In the seminar area and vacation apartments above, the sensation of floating above the water enhances the visual and emotional bond with the serene surroundings.
