Manhattan Residence

Located in the upper west side of Manhattan, this ‘classic six’ will undergo a series of smart and specific modifications to transform domestic capacity for servants to a tchotchke-free residence for urban retirement.  A single wall is eliminated between kitchen and servants quarters to create an efficient and spacious kitchen and study allowing space for a laundry and walk-in closet to grow along an existing wall.  The living and dining areas share set of sliding glass doors which allow separation or special continuity.  When stored these doors recede into a ‘column’ which can be seen from the entry creating a dynamic visual connection to the living spaces beyond.
