Cambridge Residence

Project Type: Residential
Location: Cambridge, MA

A young, modern family was in need of a space where they could both dine together and entertain friends and family. Additionally, there was a disconnect between the living areas above and their current kitchen/dining space in their 4-story row house. The design solution introduces an open stair to create visual connection between floors, as well as a continuous floating bench that creates an eating nook during the day, and a lounge-like seating area for entertaining at night. Architectural wood forms were created to emphasize the new stair opening and half-wall, and comfortable, modern finishes to make the space both livable and distinct.
