penthouse in the Ziggurat

The awkward configuration of the existing shell space ultimately proved to be a positive generator for the design of this 2,200 sq. ft. penthouse apartment. A series of distinct sub-spaces – animated by light and defined by mood, function, volume and outlook – have been created within an essentially open plan. A mezzanine floor inserted over the central wing of the plan, accommodates the owner’s gallery bedroom and bathroom.  Cut through these spaces is a slot with frameless glass roof to provide access to an upper level roof terrace. North, east and west outlooks provide an ever-changing play of natural light within the space.
