The Williamsburg loft is a 3,500 SF live/work space shared by a married couple: he is a chef and food writer, and she is a sculptor. The two found the large ground-floor space after years of searching for an industrial venue they could transform into not just a comfortable home, but workspaces for both of their disciplines.

Approximately half of the space is used as a sculpture studio, while the other half is living space that includes a spacious chef's kitchen for TV productions and events. Other business related to cooking, as well as writing, takes place in an office located off the kitchen for easy access to the desk, files, and computer while cooking.

Monumental sliding partitions measuring 10 feet by 15 feet function to open or close the workspaces from the living spaces, creating a flexible balance between life and work.
