Penthouse Loft
RESIDENTIAL
An 1882 warehouse spaces was transformed into a spacious duplex penthouse loft in lower Manhattan with the help of Acheson Doyle Partners. A rooftop penthouse bedroom was expanded to free up space in the lower level. More project details.
Acheson Doyle used space maximizing techniques coupled with historically sensitive structural interventions to create a modern loft that celebrates a nod to its past. The vernacular elements of the 1880s building, including timber columns and floor joists, were restored and became the genesis for the design aesthetics.

A new open layout allowed for an expanded and flexible kitchen and dining area. A new stair was constructed to allow access to the penthouse bedroom under an upper-level skylight that brings ample natural light down to the main level. The mechanical systems of the loft were also upgraded with a ductless cooling system, radiant flooring and a new hot water system.
