Dutch architects Shift designed this city dwelling in the center of Rotterdam. This so called do-it-yourself dwelling in the centre of Rotterdam is part of a bold experiment initiated by the municipality to revitalize dilapidated urban areas.

The main idea was to create a vertical loft: a house without walls where all three floors are stitched together into one continuous space. The interior of the new house is organized by one over-sized closet that connects all floors. It functions as a big storage device for the whole house. Measuring 10 meters in length and 9 meters in height, this modular furniture system integrates kitchen appliances, bookshelves, wardrobe, and a walk in closet.
