Originally a tennis court, this 5,000-square-foot private art gallery was transformed into a highly refined setting for the owner’s art collection. Upper and lower light galleries are enclosed by Rheinzink standing-seam panels that seamlessly clad both the exterior walls and roof together.
400 linear feet of translucent glass skylights, help diffuse and scatter natural light throughout the galleries, creating a carefully controlled environment. Interior floors feature 16-inch-wide Dinesen douglas classic plank flooring, individually selected for its character of knots, color, and grain. Supported on concrete piles with a structural steel frame, the gallery combines precision engineering, natural materials, and thoughtfully modulated light.
