Apartment G

Apartment G as found

At the beginning the apartment was defined by a low roof line that truncated the usable space and created a dark interior with low ceilings.

Apartment G as restored

In the finished apartment the roof has been raised creating space for the triple sliding glass doors and doubling the usable living space. Where previously there was a cramped darkened attic space, it now has transformed into an open, inviting living area.
