Axis Mundi was in charge of a complete gut renovation of a small one-bedroom light filled duplex in the Meat-Packing district, New York. One of the outstanding features of the 675 square foot space is the dramatic arched window which fills the space with light. The space was reconfigured, a new kitchen and powder room was designed, new zebrano plank flooring was installed on both levels. The architects designed a custom folded and cantilevered steel staircase which leads to the upper level. A sandblasted glass railing preserves privacy yet allows light to filter into the upper bedroom level. On the upper level the entire facade of the master bathroom is sandblasted glass.
