love the stone and openness

Serene natural materials were used throughout the house to weather well under harsh conditions, as well as to create the sublime color palette.

The home's distinctive architectural features are revealed the moment you walk inside. Exposed wood throughout the home is actually redwood that was stained grey to resembled driftwood and to also reflect rather than absorb all the natural light pouring into the home.

The owners of this 2,300-square-foot converted loft in SoHo have a penchant for color and collections. To make way for these elements, BC-OA kept new materials simple and desaturated with super white walls; oil-finished, white oak flooring; and white lacquered cabinetry. In the dining area, a custom designed, built-in, tufted banquette adds soft juxtaposition against the live edge dining table. The velvet upholstery is meant to provide contrast against the exposed, white-washed original brick in both texture and era. Overhead a brass chandelier with exposed Edison bulbs references the former Swan Incandescent Electric Light Co. which occupied the loft after construction was completed in 1897.

Sofa and rug are from Restoration Hardware.
