This rounded enclosed half of the house provides shelter and privacy. The other glass side of the house, facing south, takes in ocean breezes and open views.

While the neighbors with similar lofts disregarded their basement spaces, we renovated the basement area by bringing light in through the spiral staircase as well as a glass ‘lightbox’ which doubles as a bench beneath the window. The mezzanine floor is made as thin as possible in order to gain height for a spacious office area behind a translucent glass railing. The m… - [Modern Meadow](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-meadow-pj-vj~6290741) - Location: Brooklyn, NY - Photos: 5 - Description: Gut renovation of glass corner office in the historical building 128 at the Brooklyn Navy Yard for an acclaimed biotech startup.

Due to the nearby wetlands, this landmarked site allowed for a mere 9’ x 17’ extension and a terrace.

The west forgotten side of the property is activated by the wall of sliding doors. The dimensions of the interior floorboards repeat in the adjoining terrace’s exterior… - [New York Apartment](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/new-york-apartment-pj-vj~1842403) - Location: New York, NY - Photos: 8 - Description: Interior design of a Manhattan apartment.
