Always an exciting moment: art placement mock-up at the lobby of 35 Worth Street, the loft building renovation just completed by @trastudio. The artwork is one of Robert Traboscia's "banners" series, the image, a composition of photos of the 35 worth's facade, celebrates the act of crossing the threshold to the interior, by inviting the visitor to reflect about the exterior of the building. The design of the facade connects to the adjacent landmarked buildings: folded aluminum pilasters add directionality and create unexpected shadows echoing cast-iron details, the subtle articulation of the spandrels recalls the large rusticated stones of nearby historic buildings. The metal façade panels, which TRA has used widely on projects, intentionally differs from ornate historic detailing to highlight the contemporary, but contextual aesthetic. @trastudio_interiors @caterinaroiatti.trastudio #tribeca #adaptive reuse #nycarchitects
