With David Davis (AIA, IIDA)
This project is a complete re-imagination of a cluttered and dark apartment that had not taken advantage of three exposures, multiple terraces, and expansive views from the 25th floor of this pre-war building in midtown Manhattan. The thrust of the project was the carving out of an open and generous living space within a modest footprint that could be flooded with natural light from all sides and that would make the exterior views an integral part of the experience. The palette of simple matte oak floors, white stone work surfaces, and soft white walls absorb and reflect the light of the city and create an aerie like atmosphere.
