Franklin Street Loft - Dining Room / Kitchen
Photography by Eduard Hueber / archphoto
North and south exposures in this 3000 square foot loft in Tribeca allowed us to line the south facing wall with two guest bedrooms and a 900 sf master suite. The trapezoid shaped plan creates an exaggerated perspective as one looks through the main living space space to the kitchen. The ceilings and columns are stripped to bring the industrial space back to its most elemental state. The blackened steel canopy and blackened steel doors were designed to complement the raw wood and wrought iron columns of the stripped space. Salvaged materials such as reclaimed barn wood for the counters and reclaimed marble slabs in the master bathroom were used to enhance the industrial feel of the space.

5. What are your organising options? Knowing where the kitchen and bathrooms will be, and working within the constraints of the building shell, how do you want the smaller zones within the larger space organised? The four basic options are linear, grid, axial or central. For homes, you would usually use a linear or axial organisation. More on that next.Learn how to tackle the decorating dilemma in open plan living
What Houzzers are commenting on:

the ceiling above the kitchen would be good for over the bathroom.

2. Large Space Made To Look Smaller: The furniture in this photo makes the room a little less big and more small. It gives the illusion of a smaller space and reduces feelings of intimidating and uncomfortable.
