This project was the conversion of a two-story industrial building into a two-unit residential building. Folded plates in natural steel with a clear urethane coating make the front facade.
The courtyard is heavily glazed, and separated by a trellis that provides a green screen between the units. The courtyard, as well as the stair wells, provide light and air to the interiors of the units.
The rooftop has been developed as an outdoor space.
The interior was intended to be delivered partially built – essentially loft-like apartments that the purchasers could then configure to their needs.
The building is Energy Star rated, and boasts a host of other sustainable strategies.
