Architectural signature for this duplex loft in Rennes city center

Some addresses tell a story. Here, it’s the story of a former bakery that has shed the aromas of flour and freshly baked bread to become a uniquely singular duplex loft. In the heart of Rennes, this transformation reveals remarkable architectural work: a demanding and sensitive renovation where every detail seems to have been carefully considered to preserve the memory of the place while giving it a new lease on life. Zenithal light plays a central role. It descends from the skylight, circulates freely throughout the spaces, and reveals a subtle dialogue between raw materials, contemporary lines, and an industrial feel. From the entrance, the custom-designed kitchen, elegantly and subtly recessed, naturally guides the flow towards the living area.

The living room and dining room flow together beautifully. Then, the eye is irresistibly drawn to the centerpiece of the space: a spectacular staircase blending concrete and wrought iron, a true architectural sculpture that leads to a mezzanine landing suspended above the living areas. Upstairs, the sleeping area is now organized around three bedrooms, maintaining the same spirit of elegant simplicity and light. On the ground floor, a separate toilet and a utility room with direct access to the carport complete the layout. But beyond its configuration, this property is distinguished above all by the intelligence and exceptional quality of its transformation: carefully chosen materials, perfect proportions, and respect for the existing structure all contribute to creating a space that is at once raw, elegant, and profoundly vibrant.

A place of character for those seeking more than just an apartment: an atmosphere, a signature, a story. A rare, creative, almost private space. A place unlike any other.
