Which unusual structure have you witnessed being turned into a home? Converting buildings into residences is fascinating not just because it’s a novel idea per se, but also because it requires a lot of ingenuity and skill to create a habitable space around the original use.

Architect Gemma Wheeler is faced with a unique dilemma in this video. How is she going to make a home out of an ancient, abandoned, awkwardly-sized chapel?

Due of the numerous limitations of the challenge, it is not as simple as it first appears.

Initially, Wheeler intended to convert an 80-square-meter space into a three-bedroom house. Churches and chapels have diverse window positions as well.
