Built in the 19th Century, the three-storey Gramercy Park building is a former dental factory with carriage house. Working is located in the front third, living in the latter two thirds, and sleeping is on the second floor of the carriage house. Separating the office from living is a moat replete with a bridge. The second moat separates the living from the bedroom mezzanine. Analogous to the water motif, the rear wall was painted in ultramarine blue and black. In contrast to the original white wash brick timbered beams, both office and living are literally metallic colored islands, surround by water. The block cement kitchen island and tatami mat platforms populate the living space. The two-storey metal cone hangs off the mezzanine and contains a suspended "throne" on the ground floor and open shower on the mezzanine. Likewise, the custom sink is clad in the sheet metal, lined with hand enameled waterproof cement. The bed is cantilevered over the rear moat with shades. Likewise, the same material was used in the library office.
