HAPPY LUCKY GALLERY

While this project involved the complete renovation of a 1900’s mixed-use building in Brooklyn’s Bed-Stuy neighborhood, the client’s primary focus was the adaptation of the existing ground-floor commercial space into a first-class gallery. The space was imagined as a long, singular volume that can host experiential multimedia and musical performance. Hidden in the floors are pneumatic stage platforms, and in the ceiling retractable screens and recessed stage lighting. Upstairs, renovated apartments are linked to the space below programmatically as artist-in-residence studios, and directly via an adjoining green roof terrace and a discreet architectural stair to the rear of the gallery.

This project was completed while Alex was a project architect at aa64 in Brooklyn.
