Collage

Collage:20th Century Classics is a 5,400 square foot live/work space located in an existing single-story warehouse building. In order to create some separation between work and living spaces, a portion the roof was removed to create a private interior courtyard. The front portion of the facility houses a furniture showroom and the back portion of the building houses a residence. The interior courtyard allows natural light into both the showroom and the residence without compromising privacy.

At the front entry of the building a large steel ramp leads into the showroom to allow for deliveries and accommodates the ADA requirements for ramped access to the public furniture showroom. This arrangement also provides a secured parking space required by the zoning.
