MACRI PARK
There are two types of parks: public and private. Macri Park aims to combine the two into one, creating a loop of public circulation through private space. Large custom glass doors are designed to recess within the walls, defining the space as a large breezeway. The small rear yard is exploited to connect exterior and interior zones through an unremitting floorplate without thresholds.
Inground luminaries are distributed throughout interior and exterior alike to further emphasize continuity. The twisted dropped ceiling allows room for necessary mechanical equipment yet reads as a seamless connection between the two exterior spaces.
