From Julie:
Swedish-born and -educated Solveig Fernlund and Columbia-educated Neil Logan comprise Fernlund + Logan; for this loft on Lafayette Street, they used wide-board, lightly oiled Douglas Fir flooring and installed a full-height volume that contains bathrooms and the laundry and is layered with storage units on two sides. The architects have also designed furniture for arvidinc.com
