"The boundaries between spaces tend to hybridize and blur, just as I believe the boundaries between their personal and work lives may sometimes blur," says architect Carlo Parente. "There are design elements woven through both levels that allow for a sense of openness—such as the free plan and the large openings and pivoting walls. At the same time, it’s a place of refuge for Nick and Bob—and the more private and personal spaces allow them to detach."
