Office of Architecture

Brooklyn, New York

Site size: 1,620 square feet

Project size: 2,134 square feet

Program: The renovation of a 15-foot-wide row house that can adapt to the evolving needs of its owners, including space for a rental apartment.

Location: A small site in urban Brooklyn, New York.

Solution: The architects gutted the existing structure and extended the rear of the house. They carefully arranged the bathrooms and kitchens, as well as a second stair (highly unusual for a row house of this size) to allow the owners to rent out part of the second floor. As their needs change, the owners could quickly and easily remove a wall on the second floor and demolish the rental kitchen.

Construction and materials: The steel and wood frame house has masonry party walls while the rear fa'ade is clad in untreated Western Red cedar. Inside, ebony-stained oak floors complement white-painted walls. The kitchen contains a quartzite countertop with white subway tile backsplash and white-painted and walnut-veneered cabinetry.
