This custom residence was designed and built by Collaborated works in 2012. Inspired by Maison de Verre by Pierre Chareau. This modernist glass box is full steel construction. The exterior is brought inside so that the frame of the house is exposed. Large frosted glass garage doors create a beautiful light box. This townhouse has an open floating stair that is the centerpiece of the home. A fireplace in the living room is surrounded by windows. The industrial kitchen incorporates vintage fixtures and appliances that make it truly unique.

Looking down through the floating glass staircase into the kitchen we see the low-voltage fixtures that light the island workspace below. The challenge of how to integrate task-lighting into the space without taking away from the beautiful structure and transparency of the staircase is solved using 12V cable which is strung along the support structure that runs the length of the stairway bridge. This cable energizes (5) MR16 FL40 lamps in fixtures which directly downlight the counter to 52FC without glare, spill, or lamp backsplash.
