Retrofit interior design / Tag

Office São Francisco converts a nearly seventy-year-old apartment in Curitiba, Brazil, into a workplace for one of the city’s well-known thrift store networks. Designed by Leonardo Tulli, the office treats retrofit as more than renovation, using restored finishes, new partitions, and layered textures to connect meetings, partnerships, and daily creation with the apartment’s past.

This 1930s, two-storey detached house in Barnes, London, was remodelled and retrofitted by Sanya Polescuk Architects, with a carbon-neutral focus. The design uses a palette of sustainable materials and technologies such as an Air Source Heat Pump and a whole-house MVHR.
