Polanco Loft

New York, New York

Size

1,800 sf

The plan of this Soho loft is symmetrical and simple. We were challenged to find a design solution that would direct natural light throughout the space using only the north and south windows and existing skylights. In response, we developed translucent “walls” of custom laminated rice paper and glass panels that imbue the space with warm light.
