This award-winning three-bedroom condominium remodel project in Center City Philadelphia involves the complete interior renovation of the first floor of a large 1850’s Victorian brownstone, which was a gutted empty space when our clients purchased it. The contemporary design scheme is based upon bringing daylight deep into the interior of the unit. Large south-facing windows, skylights, and transoms allow sunlight in. Glass doors and transoms permit the light to penetrate interior rooms and hallways. The loft-like living room and dining room feature exposed existing heavy timber joists and brick walls. A private flagstone courtyard extends the living area into an intimate garden.
