Greene Street Loft by Kimberly Peck Architect

Greene Street Loft is a project designed by Kimberly Peck Architect. This client hired us to do a complete facelift of a quintessential Soho loft. The apartment had great bones but presented as very dated. The new design of the space emphasized the features that make an archetypal loft. Mainly, the space was opened and the central timber beam and cast iron columns were exposed, all paint was removed and the materiality emphasized. Photography by ddreps.

Apartment near Tbilisi State Conservatoire by NS STUDIO

Apartment near Tbilisi State Conservatoire is a project designed by NS STUDIO. “The two-storey space that is built above the old house, is located next to Tbilisi State Conservatoire. Prior to renovation works, the common area of the house, where we get through the staircase, was divided into various functional spaces. Such planning didn’t fit the customer’s daily life. Accordingly, we decided to create the space where all the elements would meet the requirements of the property owner. We dismantled all the partitions, unpacked the ceiling and walls of outer perimeter and united into a single space, that brought a new life to the apartment. There are some details that create distinctive mood for the particular space. For instance, an existing two-sided fireplace, separating the kitchen and the living room, metal and wooden windows, with wooden shutters and natural light coming from the second floor.” Photography by Nick Paniashvili.

The major objectives were to design for maximum energy conservation, as well as to generate energy on-site. Our goal was to combine alternative technologies and a sophisticated palette of new and reclaimed materials to co-exist in architectural harmony. This strategy also helped achieve the environmental goals of the project. Photography by Doug Fogelson.

Loft Chartier by Studiocolnaghi

Loft Chartier designed by Studiocolnaghi is a small well-located apartment. It is designed to host a young couple during weekends, so its main purporse is to be as practical as beautiful. The apartment itself has some qualities, like a corner window and a concrete slab. So, those were importante tools to compose the interior design. In order to contrast to the brutalist aspect of the apartament, we design a wood ceilling in the main entrance. So, this element also appear as a wall pannel which hides a door. The wood floor is a tool to create the impression of a bigger space, as we have the same material on the wall and parto of the ceilling. Photography by Vinícius Ferzeli.
