Stairway

Built in drawers in plywood stair

The industrial stair leads to the upper level, where the bedrooms, bathrooms, and play space are located.

“Elegant material choices, subtle detailing, and thoughtful spatial sensibilities belie the building’s intelligent space planning,” says Aniket Shahane of OA.

A catwalk connects the two bedrooms upstairs without impeding the flow of light in the main area. The staircase is composed of structural steel with a painted finish, and blackbutt treads and handrail.

Double-height glass now lets the communal living areas spill out onto an exterior courtyard.

At the rear of the property, a two-story extension was added, including the open concept kitchen and dining area seen here, as well as bathrooms, bedrooms, and a lounge area.

Stained white-oak flooring was used throughout the interior, which help to bring the natural siding from the outdoors in.

The dedicated office features a built-in workspace and a wall of built-in cabinetry.

A slice of light artistically highlights the staircase.

The interiors are kept pure and simple.

Stairs lead up to loft on the upper level.
