Mott Street Studio
Mott Street Studio, located in New York City, is a conversion of two small flats into one long sunny space in an old brick tenement building on a quiet block off the Bowery. A warren of rooms were removed to create an open plan, reorienting the space along its 50 foot length, and capturing light from eight large east facing windows. Spaces are articulated by Douglas fir and translucent Plexiglas cabinetry, which in turn act as light sources for the new spaces. An extremely tight budget monitored the project, but the net effect is grand.
