The dimensions were prescribed by the size of the original piece of aluminum, which was salvaged from a dumpster downtown. The challenge of the piece was to generate a useful, attractive form by only cutting and folding the aluminum. By cutting a long U in the sheet then folding perpendicular to that U, two surfaces could be created. The secondary surface sits lower than the primary surface and creates semi-hidden storage for books, magazines, and remotes. The shelf sits in the cradle created by folding its own void.

No furniture fit the spaces. For the last 15 years, the house has been occupied with hardly any furniture. The furniture they do have is very basic, off the shelf, and does not fit well. We approached the owners and offered to do some furniture design for them, and were commissioned to do the office loft. We were given some rough shapes to work with which we changed and shifted. We built cabinetry that echoed the built in pieces separating living and dining downstairs. The cabinetry was topped with clearcoated 10 gauge steel plate for a work surface. The desk surface sits on cabinetry on one side and a filing cabinet on the other. The cabinetry has display shelving toward the outside and storage space toward the inside hidden from view by a perforated panel on the front. The storage is accessed from the inner side by sliding another perforated panel back. This cabinet also houses a drawer which is made of perforate with a solid sheet being used as an insert. The file cabinet consists of a steel tube frame and perforate drawers. The files hang on the drawer frame, and since the drawer bodies do not support any weight they are left very light. The surface of the desk has two slots to access power outlets and keep cords organized. The slot at the back runs into an electrical box which houses a power strip. Behind the desk, the surface seems to bend down to the floor as there is another piece of steel mounted there. The worktable has display shelves toward the large window and staircase, and storage toward the desk. The storage is hidden by perforated steel panels that slide vertically. The panels nearest the desk slide nearly to the floor to allow a sewing machine drawer to be accessed. There are counterweights tucked into the display shelving connected to each panel. This allows the motion of the panels to be explained and put on display.

It was developed as an exploration of storage in small spaces. The idea was to store the services in the floor of the weekly mansion. The bathroom and rarely used kitchen are several feet below the living space and are closed off by panels when not in use to provide more open, usable space for more of the time. The project also includes a retail space above the open ground level and a bar at basement level. The floors are staggered to provide each unit with its own entry landing. The service areas in the retail space and at the roof level reference those in the units. These act as planters on the roof and fitting rooms and displays in the store. The exterior of the building facing south is clad with sliding metal screens over sliding windows allowing the units to be open, closed, or ventilated while maintaining privacy.
