About Loft in New York
Nestled in the vibrant heart of New York City lies the “Loft in New York,” a testament to contemporary design by Oda New York. This loft apartment, situated within the historic 55 Mercer building, captures the essence of urban elegance.
Timeless Exterior, Modern Flair
The loft’s façade, a conservation effort, beautifully maintains the original cast iron work indicative of New York’s industrial past. Designed to blend with the streetscape, the exterior of 55 Mercer quietly commands attention. Above, a modern addition – invisible from the street – boasts a rooftop penthouse. Here, the design transcends time, merging the classic with the contemporary.
Inside the Loft
Stepping inside, the loft unfurls into an expansive living space, where exposed brick walls meet sleek, modern furnishings. The juxtaposition of old and new creates a dialogue between the loft’s historic roots and its modern transformation. The natural light that floods through large windows illuminates the contemporary interior, highlighting the detailed work of Oda New York.
A Nod to the Present
Each room within the loft serves as a canvas for modern living, with carefully selected decor that accentuates the apartment’s design style. From the intimate embrace of the plush bedroom to the open-air freedom of the rooftop terrace, the loft offers a serene retreat from the city’s bustle. This restoration project, completed with both reverence for history and a nod to present-day sensibilities, stands as a cultural hallmark in New York City’s architectural landscape.
In every corner, “Loft in New York” remains a respectful allusion to history and a quiet nod to the present, a space where design narratives of past and present coalesce.
