Carved Duplex is a rooftop addition to a brick residential building. The one bedroom apartment takes over the 3rd floor & expands upward via an austere steel box. The project explores the phenomenological qualities of living in close proximity to large monoliths in various material forms. The private sleeping quarters are located within a black room at the rear; behind the block, wedge & stair monoliths that must be traversed. The project also features twin-cut fireplaces, a stainless steel kitchen, a long stainless steel tub, roof deck & grey, waxed wood floors.
