West Side Penthouse - AC Hocek Architecture
As Project Designer, we were inspired by this penthouse apartment’s stunning view of the Hudson River. The project focuses on the framing of light and views in a way that become revealed as one traverses through the residence.
Diagram: Framed views
Through a series of design moves centered around opening up the entire western exposure with floor-to-ceiling windows, a cinematic reveal of the view heightens the spatial experience.
Section at Skylight
Throughout the apartment, views are framed in several portals to the outside, including a dramatic hallway skylight (A), and a tilted custom bay window (O).
Active Kitchen
The kitchen is an important place for the family, because home cooking is an integral part of their lifestyle.
