The renovation sought to keep the original material and details such as the plaster ceiling molding and wrought-iron glass door panels. One of the most crucial aspects of the new design is to reglaze an alley-facing window with a single sheet of frosted glass. Emitting light late at night, the window communicates to the outside world the life of the new occupants–the architects who never stop working.
