The Garibaldi renovation project is completed by the team at Studio IDA. What once stood as an old triangular stable is now a modern residence with a loft space. The transformation optimizes the limited space that is available for short-term rental. The building shows off a storied past and the interior needed a big overhaul.
The main objective of the design team was to create a functional space which is also comfortable for a modern living environment while maintaining its original charm. The attic was used to store hay before and converted into a mezzanine to optimize the high ceilings -- these reached almost 20 feet at the end of the home to make it feel larger than it is.
