The traditional house at Bellevue Zurich is run by the family business Bindella and appreciated by the diverse clientele as a pleasant meeting place at any time of the day. In the redesign, Pfeffermint succeeds in sensitively reuniting the confusing still landscape that has developed over the years into a stringent mood and successfully complementing it with modern and stylish elements. "Consciously take a step back" was the recommendation after our analysis. Great importance is attached to a subtle treatment of the existing building. For example, only moderate adjustments were made in the imposing dining room and many elements were merely restored to their original state in order to restore the existing building structure to its former glory. After this successful reduction of the design language, pfeffermint succeeded in giving the rooms a distinguished modernity with new furniture.
