Text description provided by the architects. Can a sober and severe design evoke a sense of whimsical wonder and discovery? In a Lower East Side apartment, a table, a carpet, and a room-sized wooden box are designed with a kind of architectural magical realism: the childlike feeling that one has when finding - hidden in plain sight - a space that unfolds into a private and personal world. This interior renovation took place on the second floor of a cast-iron building, in a spacious loft filled with diffuse, indirect light.
