Preserving the patina; a sensitive design intervention.
02
An off-grid structure situated in the backyard of a home in Boston. It's sole purpose is to serve as an outdoor bedroom.
03
A converted bi-level space situated inside a former Catholic School built in the early 1900's, then later converted into condos.
1108 PINE STREET was built as a single-family home in the mid 1900's. Over the course of 100+ years, it has been an antique store, art gallery, as well as the backdrop for an M. Night Shyamalan movie The Sixth Sense.
Counter to common commercial redevelopment that erases the character of an old building, we sought a sensitive intervention—one highlighting the patina of the past with efficiency for the future.
During demo we uncovered unused niches original to the building. To maximize square footage, all nooks and crannies were redesigned as storage or shelving for clothing, food, HVAC equipment, etc. Our favorite part was designing the built-ins, furniture, and peg boards for extra storage and seating.
