This project encompasses the renovation of two aging metal warehouses located on an acre just North of the 610 loop. The larger warehouse, previously an auto body shop, measures 6000 square feet and will contain a residence, art studio, and garage. A light well puncturing the middle of the main residence brightens the core of the deep building. The over-sized roof opening washes light down three masonry walls that define the light well and divide the public and private realms of the residence. The interior of the light well is conceived as a serene place of reflection while providing ample natural light into the Master Bedroom. Large windows infill the previous garage door openings and are shaded by a generous steel canopy as well as a new evergreen tree court to the west. Adjacent, a 1200 sf building is reconfigured for a guest or visiting artist residence and studio with a shared outdoor patio for entertaining. Photo by Peter Molick, Art by Karin Broker

Careful placement of the fenestration allows for plenty of natural light, while avoiding direct sunlight and shadows on the rear wall of the studio space which is used for painting.

The curvaceous shape of the Carson Gooseneck Wall Mount is a classic in wall-mounted warehouse fixtures. The up-and-over nature of the arm works particularly well for illuminating doorways and signs. Originally made from heavy iron, our lightweight, durable aluminum version comes in three different projection lengths.
