This project was a renovation of a 450 ft2 studio loft located in the
heart downtown Atlanta. The owner had a shoestring budget and needed to
do most of the renovation himself. The strategy focused on correcting
some of the poor design choices made in the original building conversion
and bring out any aspects of the historic building that could still be
salvaged. The carpet was removed and the 100 yr old heart of pines
floors were refinished. The main duct and air intake were re-routed along
with a new ceiling installed throughout. New cabinets and fixtures were
installed in the kitchen. A new closet was custom fabricated to appear
as if floating between the column and adjacent wall. A large sideboard
was also custom fabricated to hold the owner’s large vinyl record
collection and dj turntables. New light fixtures were installed
throughout.
