About Prism
IwamotoScott’s Prism Apartments: Captivating Interior Architecture
IwamotoScott Architecture unveils its stunning interior design for Prism Apartments, a mixed-use residential development located in Downtown San Francisco. Situated at 1028 Market Street, Olympic Residential and Tidewater Capital partnered to create this luxurious living space. The project encompasses a main lobby on Market Street, leasing offices, elevator lobbies, corridors, a mail room, gym, co-working lounge, and a rear lobby off Golden Gate Ave.
The Elegant Lobby: A Masterpiece of Design
The lobby captivates residents and visitors with its double-height space and eye-catching sculptural staircase. A double-curved ceiling canopy, crafted from interlocking wood slats, hovers above. The main lobby entrance features a custom steel and frosted glass retail entrance that opens onto Market Street. The built-in seating area along Market Street showcases a back-lit wood slat feature wall, reflecting the finger-jointed ruled surface geometry of the main lobby ceiling treatment.
Custom Steel and Glass Retail Entrance: A Collaboration with Sand Studios
IwamotoScott collaborated with Sand Studios to create the breathtaking custom steel and glass retail entrance. The design features a multi-operable set of pivoting panels. The staircase is suspended along one side by a steel structure embedded within a wood slat system, seamlessly integrating with the ceiling slats. A leasing lounge and offices on a second-floor mezzanine overlook the main lobby below. The ceiling canopy’s finger-jointed ruled surface geometry directs visitors’ eyes back out toward Market Street from the rear of the main lobby.
Co-working Lounge, Gym, and Rear Lobby: Amenities for Modern Living
A co-working lounge is strategically placed alongside the mid-block courtyard, providing a comfortable and inviting space for residents. Wellness and gym amenity spaces are situated between the mid-block courtyard and the rear lobby. The rear lobby off Golden Gate Ave features a second built-in seating element and a custom fabricated back-lit blackened steel screen, adding a touch of sophistication to the space.
