This plastic surgeon had beautiful art he wanted to showcase, as well as wanting a high aesthetic for his clientele. We used cherry and birch as a beautiful contrast in the custom pieces we designed for the office, which are functional and beautiful: the reception desk and a custom slide-viewing cabinet, as well as the other cabinetry.
As design architect, we developed the program, shepherded the design through the Historic District Commission process and assembled the team for the renovation of this existing concrete block masonry building. We added a second story and planned for a fully electrical building powered by solar panels on the roof. The existing asphalt parking lot is to be transformed into a terrace and gardens, designed by Bernice Wahler Landscape, and the second story incorporates a rooftop garden. One enters a contemporary gallery space, and progresses through a paneled library space, ascending to an airy, light-filled second floor where each room has a different vibe: from Moroccan bath to Scandinavian birch minimalism to Louis XIV salon.
