LE-VINGT-DEUX | JELJELI studio

The project is located in Mutuelle ville, an emblematic neighborhood located north of downtown's Tunis and bordering Belvedere park, in this district resided in the 1900s by members of a mutual, and has been transformed over the years into a residential area with art nouveau, modernist and contemporary buildings with vibrant greenery.

This project consisted of renovation of a building built in the 1950s. It features two independent entities: A flagship showroom and workspace for the ready to wear brand ANISSA AIDA on the ground floor and Appart le-vingt-deux a residential apartment on the upper floor.

Appart le-vingt-deux is a living space designed for a couple of designers, hassene jeljeli and the daughter of Achraf meddeb both architects from different backgrounds and generations.

The concept was to create a living space, zen, bright with interior facades, to have an open space with large windows to enjoy the view.

All the original house was built in load-bearing stone, a huge thermal advantage but also a disadvantage in terms of freedom to have large windows without touching the structure. 

The apartment consists of an open space with a living room, dining room and kitchen, a master bedroom with bathroom and office space, a guest room with an office that can be converted into an extension of the living room and an additional bathroom. With two large terraces.
