Project Description
This renovation of a private residence in Manhattan focused on the combination of two separate apartments and the transformation of an unoccupied roof into a large terrace. The sills of existing windows were dropped to allow for patio doors from all spaces, making the new terrace the center of activity within the apartment. The demolition of an existing bathroom and demising walls created a large open room for relaxing and entertaining. The most remote portion of the combined apartment was kept as a private “sanctuary,” complete with its own private bathroom and bar.
