Garden Pavilion

This steel and glass structure is at the back of an urban courtyard defined by two contiguous townhouses in Greenwich Village. The style is modern, yet timeless, and an appropriate and comfortable juxtaposition to the historic 1827 house. Large steel and glass doors, designed with panes the same proportion as the original house, but much larger, open to fully engage the garden. A system of mechanically fastened steel with exposed screws supports a continuous grid of glass block which allows the roof to be habitable and affords light with interesting shadow patterns all day to fill the space.
