BUGGYWORKS AUTHENTIC URBAN LOFTS

The architectural idea features a respect for the integrity of the existing historic structure and embraces details, materials and elements of the existing structure.  All of the new interventions are strategically designed to be independent from the existing superstructure and complement the natural wood and brick.  Throughout the interior, existing materials were returned to their original state through abatement and sandblasting.  The result is a rich assemblage of natural, authentic building materials.  Additionally, most of the modern technologies are concealed, to maximize the appreciation of the original structure.  A plenum was designed to isolate noise transfer from floor to floor and also conveniently accommodate the ventilation, electrical and technology infrastructure.
