It also presented a few opportunities: a tall ceiling and a discerning client. Our desire was to imbue the space with a quality of light that was soft, generous, and unlike any other space in the building. Kinks in both plan and section align at the column, now absorbed into our new wall. A continuous window frame registers the original geometry of the room and reveals the column once again behind lapped, translucent glass. .<img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/35794/889329/1-expl_side-p.jpg" width="670" height="502" width_o="1024" height_o="768" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/35794/889329/1-expl_side-p_o.jpg" data-mid="4536813" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/35794/889329/2-IMG_3521.jpg" width="576" height="768" width_o="576" height_o="768" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/35794/889329/2-IMG_3521_o.jpg" data-mid="4536814" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/35794/889329/3-IMG_3523.jpg" width="576" height="768" width_o="576" height_o="768" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/35794/889329/3-IMG_3523_o.jpg" data-mid="4536815" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/35794/889329/4-IMG_3524.jpg" width="576" height="768" width_o="576" height_o="768" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/35794/889329/4-IMG_3524_o.jpg" data-mid="4536816" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/35794/889329/5-IMG_6399.jpg" width="670" height="502" width_o="1024" height_o="768" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/35794/889329/5-IMG_6399_o.jpg" data-mid="4536817" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/35794/889329/6-IMG_3433.jpg" width="576" height="768" width_o="576" height_o="768" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/35794/889329/6-IMG_3433_o.jpg" data-mid="4536818" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/35794/889329/7-112905_plan.jpg" width="670" height="502" width_o="1024" height_o="768" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/35794/889329/7-112905_plan_o.jpg" data-mid="4536819" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/35794/889329/8-IMG_1230.jpg" width="670" height="502" width_o="1024" height_o="768" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/35794/889329/8-IMG_1230_o.jpg" data-mid="4536821" border="0" align="left"/> CLIENT Caramagnos Foods Co.
