Changes to the ground floor layout of a building over time

The provided floor plans illustrate the structural evolution of a building across three distinct periods: as an office from 1958 to 1984, an apartment from 1985 to 2000, and finally as a flower shop from 2001 to the present day.

Overall, the building underwent significant structural modifications to accommodate these changing functions. Notably, the kitchen remained in its original location in the top-right corner throughout the entire period, while other areas were repurposed or removed to suit the specific needs of each occupant.

During the office period, the space was partitioned into several small rooms, including a meeting room, an assistant's office, a secretary's office, and a toilet on the left side, with a manager's office and reception area on the right. When converted into an apartment, these internal walls were removed to create larger living spaces. The left side was transformed into a living room and a bathroom, while the right side was divided into two bedrooms, with the kitchen remaining unchanged.

In the final transformation into a flower shop, the layout was further altered. The kitchen was retained, but the rest of the floor was opened up. The left side now features a gift card section, a flower display area, and a play area, while the right side contains an office and an additional flower display area near the entrance.
