Exposed load bearing columns are punctuated by stainless steel and glass features. These strong structural elements combine with rich multicultural woods and organic materials as homage to the ethnic and industrial diversity outside of its walls.

“..Uptown poise invades downtown, bringing high style to the Lower East Side…”

Chrystie Place is a large residential development in a 14-story, Dutch Warehouse styled edifice. The building encompasses a whole city block and seeks to create an ultra hip sense of living within one of the most densely populated cities in the world. BG Studio International Inc. interiors together with Arquitectonica and architects of Record SLCE has given shape to Chrystie Place and in so doing further define New York’s newest neighborhood, SOBO (South of Bowery).

Integral in establishing the ‘Urban Edge’ feel of the building is the lobby. Conceived as a whimsical unraveling ball of strings, the movement and curvilinear balance of the two-story space is in sharp contrast with the rectilinear structure of the external architecture.
