Tribeca Loft is a stunning industrial home located in New York, designed in 2021 by Andrea Leung.

Description
Inspired by the hidden spaces of her grandmother?s apartment in Vancouver, New York-based architect Andrea Leung has renovated a 1,600-sf historic Tribeca loft.

The renovation was completed during the pandemic, and Leung lived in the space throughout.

Lean on the right bookcase, and a dimly lit hallway led you to her own personal oasis of calm,? Leung says of the project?s muse. Since she moved to New York in 2013, Leung had envisioned transforming a city apartment into a secluded refuge inspired by the essence of her grandmother?s space, but also updated to her own tastes. On a quiet corner in Tribeca, she found the ideal site: a sun-drenched loft with soaring antique verdigris tin ceilings held up by three cast-iron Corinthian columns. Located in a historic building dating to 1864, the apartment is accessed via a flight of lopsided stairs and a passage lined with oversized industrial rolling doors.
