This loft conversion in the Lower East Side is located next to a historically protected cemetery that ensures no future construction will block the abundant light that fills the airy residence. The design draws daylight deep into the interior, with free standing partitions instead of walls, and dropped ceiling panels defining "rooms" within the open loft. The partitions nearest the street-front windows dividing public functions (eating, relaxing, and entertaining areas) as the most translucent partitions dividing private areas (study, resting, and sleeping) grow increasingly opaque as they move away from the street. The master suite features a walk-in closet, vestibule, and a large bathroom with a custom steam shower.
