Local design studio Light & Air presents a look at the new Z House in Brooklyn, which is defined by bright light-filled themes. It is found in the Clinton Hill neighborhood and is home to a family of four from India. The design project started with extending the building to another vertical level, making it four stories in total whilst also restoring the historic front facade.
Light & Air states, "They wanted a house that exhibited a strong connection to nature, featuring a more seamless integration between inside and out. Filled by light and air, the stair's drama is heightened by the placement of large windows punctuating the rear facade, allowing the vertical space to open to the exterior."
