This penthouse loft occupies the top floor of a converted warehouse in Tribeca, where a former artist’s studio was reworked into a family home. High ceilings, exposed brick, and strong light from the south and west defined the original space, which was largely open aside from a small kitchen and bath. 

The Turett Collaborative introduced a series of freestanding elements within the loft to organize daily life without closing it off. Bedrooms, bathrooms, and storage are contained within these built-in sections, while the areas between them remain open for living, dining, and movement through the space. This approach maintains the openness of the loft while creating a clear sense of privacy where needed. 

A two-story glass and steel wall at the south end brings additional light deep into the interior and sets apart the primary bedroom suite. Taking advantage of the ceiling height, the enclosed areas stop short of the ceiling, allowing space above for home offices and storage. These upper areas are connected by a glass bridge that keeps sightlines open across the loft. 

A steel and oak stair leads to a rooftop pavilion and landscaped terrace, extending the living space outdoors. The roof includes areas for dining, gathering, and everyday use, with open views toward the Hudson River and lower Manhattan. 

Together, the project balances openness and separation, shaping a flexible home within a former industrial space.
