A Slide Is A Fun Alternative To The Stairs Inside This Home

Indee Design has transformed a duplex into a single-family home, and included in the interior, is a slide that travels between floors.

Indee Design has recently completed a renovation in Montreal, Canada, that transformed a duplex into a single-family home, and included in the interior, is a slide that travels between floors.

Stepping inside the home, there’s a glass-front area with floor-to-ceiling windows that look out to the street. This wood-lined area, with curtains, includes a sitting area and an area with a stool and wood bar.

This front section of the home also includes a pair of swings and a view of the slide that connects the two floors of the home.

The open-plan interior of the social areas of the home also includes the dining area and kitchen, where wood and black cabinetry and countertops have been paired for a contemporary appearance.

Opposite the kitchen is a wood platform that’s home to a couch and leads to the steel stairs. A powder room with patterned tiles has been tucked away underneath the stairs.

Also on this floor is a catamaran net for relaxing. Beside the net is the top of the slide, providing the children of the home with a fun way of getting downstairs.
