The main stair of the house is located in the double height corner of the L-Shape serving as a connection between the social and private areas of the house.

The Level 2 takes advantage of the L-Shape to divide the private areas in 3 sections.

The left wing is occupied by the Master Bedroom with the bath room and dressing room, the right with is occupied by the 2 bedrooms and the TV room and the corner of the L-Shape is occupied by the stair lobby and Guest Room.

This arrangement guaranteed the privacy of the bedrooms and created a meeting point for the family in the crossing of the 2 wings.
