Question juridique clé
Whether the private entrance area constituted a defective work under Art. 58 CO.
Solution extraite
No. Given its private use, the layout and lighting did not fail to provide the safety required for normal use; the risk was avoidable with minimum care.
Motifs extraits
The entrance served a private dwelling, not an access used by an indefinite public. The absence of a barrier and the lighting situation did not amount to a defect, especially considering self-responsibility and the limited safety expectations for privately used residential property.
