Midtown Minimal

Located in the heart of the fashion district, this former manufacturing space provided workshop/apd with numerous opportunities to reinterpret materials and their respective forms. Contemporary materials typically thought of as cold and uninviting were transformed through various fabrication processes into sumptuous and unexpected textures and forms. Steel shelving and panels, finished with a dark patina that resembled old worn leather, join with ethereal satin glass walls to define space, provide storage, and filter light. In many cases, materials normally associated with exterior surfaces were reimagined in interior applications. Split face stone, concrete flooring, teak decking, and stucco walls all bring a tremendous amount of texture and warmth to an otherwise very minimal space. Each space was meticulously detailed to have its own defined style, while still relating to the overall design sensibility of the loft. The result is a fluid and flexible home that feels both open yet cozy.
