This three level, 4,000 square foot beach house is located on a canal off the Gulf of Mexico in St. Pete Beach, Florida.

This restoration and renovation transformed an early 20th Century manufacturing building into four luxury lofts and a duplex penthouse in one of the Tribeca Landmark Districts in New York.

Exposed brick, preserved wood beams and lacquered steel columns contrast with highly polished details such as glass tiles and doors, making the space fresh and light.

This luxurious duplex penthouse tops an early 20th Century manufacturing building on Warren Street. Because the building lies in one of the Tribeca Landmark Districts in New York, OCV’s design had to meet with Landmarks Commission approval.

To create the duplex a new floor was added to the building, resulting in an open and opulent unit. High ceilings, glass flooring, and large windows and skylights flood the interior in natural light. Exposed brick walls preserve the rustic loft feel while highly polished details make the space fresh and light.

This small project for a newlywed couple reconfigured and modernized an antiquated apartment in the former Raleigh Hotel on Manhattan’s Upper West Side.

This four-story, early 20th Century brownstone saw the renovation and extension of the owner’s duplex on the first two levels. A ground floor expansion of the rear resulted in an enlarged master suite and an additional bedroom. Above it, a grand room gives way to a terrace.

Existing historic millwork and details were seamlessly extended into the new spaces and structural damage that was revealed during construction was rehabilitated.

This three bedroom, three bath dwelling in Manhattan’s historic Tribeca district places the ease of apartment living into a rugged formerly commercial loft.

Contrasting materials such as glass doors and exposed brick play off one another to bring warmth to a clean contemporary design.
