This townhouse in the South Slope, Brooklyn is owned by an artistic client who has his own manufacturing workshop nearby. The design was a true collaboration between client and architect with many intricate details both conceived of and built by the client himself.

The house was completely gutted and the rear brick opening was enlarged for doors and windows to the rear deck. A new, efficient boiler was added with radiant floor heating throughout the building. Lastly, a fourth story was built on top of the house with a small front balcony, a master bedroom suite in front and an office space in the back with 14′ high ceilings.
