TriBeCa Multipurpose Room

This project is a retrofit of a multi-purpose room into an ample triplex apartment in TriBeCa, NYC. The original space is triple height with a very large footprint and the program called for the creation of a separate area to be used as a children's playroom primarily. However, the space can also transform into a sleeping area for short term guests. A murphy bed comes out from the wall and sliding doors pull out from a concealed location within the woodwork.

The materials used are pre-finished, cerrused cypress paneling, aluminum, and custom leather pulls. The room is lit from the perimeter by recessed strip lights that are framed by a delicately sloping ceiling which softly illuminates the space at the edges to create a glowing effect. .
