The Turett Collaborative
The new owners of this West Village Manhattan townhouse knew that gutting an historically significant building would be a complex undertaking. They were admirers of Turett's townhouse renovations elsewhere in the neighborhood and brought his team on board to convert the multi-unit structure into a single family home. Turett's team had extensive experience with Landmarks, and worked closely with preservationists to anticipate the special needs of the protected facade.
The TCA team met with the city's Excavation Unit, city-appointed archeologists, preservationists, Community Boards, and neighbors to bring the owner's original vision - a peaceful home on a tree-line street - to life. Turett worked with adjacent homeowners to achieve a planted rear-yard design that satisfied all interested parties, and brought an impressive array of engineers and consultants aboard to help guarantee a safe process.
Turett worked with the owners to design a light-filled house, with landscaped yard and terraces, a music parlor, a skylit gym with pool, and every amenity. The final designs include Turett's signature tour-de-force stairs; sectional invention creating overlapping volumes of space; a dramatic triple-height steel-and-glass elevation; extraordinary acoustical and thermal insulation as part of a highly energy efficient envelope.

Completion Interior Design & Architecture
GARDEN EXTERIOR. This imposing, red brick, Victorian villa has wonderful proportions, so we had a great skeleton to work with. Formally quite a dark house, we used a bright colour scheme, introduced new lighting and installed plantation shutters throughout. The brief was for it to be beautifully stylish at the same time as being somewhere the family can relax. We also converted part of the double garage into a music studio for the teenage boys - complete with sound proofing!

Eine außergewöhnlich moderne Backstei- narchitektur entsteht: unvergänglich und solide
Das Gebäude besteht aus zwei verschobenen, übereinander liegenden Kuben, die im Grundriss eine L - Form ergeben.
Der zweigeschossige Riegel überragt den eingeschossigen und definiert die geschützte, hervorgehobene Eingangssituation und rahmt zum Garten die großzügige Terrasse ein.
Zur Straße zeigt sich die Fassade zurückhaltend verschlossen, zum Garten öffnet sie sich mit großen Glasflächen und lässt den Wohnraum mit dem Aussenraum verschmelzen.
