Whether it be due to rising real estate costs, urban densification, or simply wanting to leave a lesser footprint, people seem to be inhabiting smaller and smaller homes these days. This space crunch is requiring a novel reevaluation of how we make use of and organize the space around us. With the right approach, we think making more from less square footage is a smart choice. We also rightly feel that just because you are living in a smaller space, you shouldn’t have to live a smaller life.
We walked into all the chaos of a construction site with this project. The 1911-built heritage house had been gutted, lifted, and extended and it was only an outline of the finished product that laid ahead. There were some preliminary architectural drawings delineating the new layout of the home, but the details were all still to be worked out.
After building a conference room and desks for his office, TR asked us into his downtown condo to see what ideas we had for the place. We came upon an apartment with unnecessary walls and partitions making it hard to utilize the space effectively and blocking off the wonderful 28th floor view from the bedroom. We started by removing the wall separating living room and bedroom, and also removing the frosted glass sliding partition between the bedroom and the enclosed patio space he was using as an office.
Jo Anne and Dan came to us with an interesting proposal. They wanted to live small - really small. With only just over 400 sq ft to work with, making this small space live big turned out to be no small task. We began by removing all existing partitions and then looking at how best to utilize the space to allow for multiple overlapping uses.
