Work | Conversion Loft

This installation, in one of the units in the Electric Ave. Artist’s Lofts, was undertaken in the interest of domesticating this sleeping loft by providing substantial closet space and at the same time providing a greater level of privacy while simultaneously maintaining the open feel of the loft.

.

This installation was carried out without the use of cabinet hardware such as pulls or handles, instead using harmonious geometries to create cutaways which would fulfill those functions.

.

As this installation is on the sleeping mezzanine of an open loft space, the main closet was designed in such a way that when opened, it becomes the privacy partition for a generous changing area.

Glass countertops were provided as a contrast to the plywood. Frosted glass openings were also provided in the privacy screen to play up the division of space.
