This project encompasses the renovation of two aging metal warehouses located on an acre just North of the 610 loop. The larger warehouse, previously an auto body shop, measures 6000 square feet and will contain a residence, art studio, and garage. A light well puncturing the middle of the main residence brightens the core of the deep building. The over-sized roof opening washes light down three masonry walls that define the light well and divide the public and private realms of the residence. The interior of the light well is conceived as a serene place of reflection while providing ample natural light into the Master Bedroom. Large windows infill the previous garage door openings and are shaded by a generous steel canopy as well as a new evergreen tree court to the west. Adjacent, a 1200 sf building is reconfigured for a guest or visiting artist residence and studio with a shared outdoor patio for entertaining. Photo by Peter Molick, Art by Karin Broker

Per l’arredo del bagno è stata utilizzata una vasca in ghisa in vernice bianca e vaso in porcellana anch’esso bianco, tutti i sanitari Devon & Devon. Un accorgimento particolare per il bastone da tenda, in smalto nero, che è stato realizzato su misura seguendo le dimensioni del profilo della vasca, tende in lino resinato. Le mensole in legno massello e il lavabo d’appoggio disegnato da Paola Navone in ceramica bianca, tutto Flaminia. La rubinetteria Bossini e lo scaldasalviette in nickel spazzolato. Accessori del bagno vintage, selezionati uno ad uno attraverso una ricerca per banchi, mercati artigianali e negozi di modernariato (una scoperta trovare nella bottega Iucu, negozio per rarità, le forme da scarpe adattate poi ad appendini). Non solo la parete vetrata introduce alla camera da letto ma anche il tema dell’acqua è predominante nelle due stanze. Una cassetta antica in legno massello assieme a un rubinetto invecchiato sono stati appesi alla parete frontale al letto creando voluta continuità con il bagno. - Для санузла была выбрана чугунная ванна в белом цвете и унитаз из белого санфарфора Devon & Devon. Черный металлический карниз под шторки из прорезиненного льна, сделанный на заказ в Decortier, повторяет силуэт ванной. Накладная белая керамическая раковина на деревянных полках от Flaminia спроектирована Паолой Навоне. Смесители от Bossini и полотенцесушитель Margaroli — все в редкой отделке матовый никель. Каждый аксессуар — винтажный и отдельно подобран в антикварных лавках. В спальню “ведет” не только стеклянная стена, но и тема воды — напротив кровати на стене закреплен деревянный ящик со специально состаренным в бюро фонтанным краном.

Ванная комната, выполняющая одновременно функцию гостевой комнаты

When we replaced the windows throughout the house, we reclaimed all the original oak trim, pulling out the nails, stripping off the varnish, and ultimately, giving the old wood new life by crafting it into wall-to-wall cabinetry and an elegant vintage-inspired vanity. The construction process was hands on: demolition uncovered a few quirks and offered the opportunity to add insulation, HVAC and electrical (previously, there was not a single outlet in the room.) We pulled up the linoleum floor and discovered a relatively spotless maple floor, which we scraped and refinished. photography by tylermallory.com
