CHELSEA TOWNHOUSE, NEW YORK CITY ARCHI-TECTONICS

摘要

The existing brownstone townhouse located in Chelsea, New York, was gut renovated and a 51m~2 two-storey-high garden extension with a roof terrace was added. The new extension is conceived as a light, airy space, which creates a filter to the garden space beyond, adding more light and better views. The folded glass and steel facade structure is partially clad with reclaimed palisander hardwood planks, and incorporates large pivoting doors opening up to extend the lower-level library into the garden, as an exterior living room. On the parlour floor, the living room and kitchen have direct access to the garden. On the third floor, the master bedroom suite opens up onto the terrace overlooking the garden.
