Featured Project: Noel Barnhurst Studios

We’re happy to share some finished photography of our most recently completed project: the studios of Noel Barnhurst.  We were asked to renovate a 1930’s era concrete warehouse located in San Francisco’s SOMA district to accommodate the client’s food photography studio as well as other associated program including test + preparation kitchens, as well as office + conference spaces.  We appreciated the raw material character of the existing building and worked to preserve these elements while making sure new construction complemented the building’s existing material palette.  Hand in hand with this strategy, we avoided creating hard partitions and opted instead for a series of heavy velour curtains to divide space — ensuring the spatial organization remained open-ended and keeping the physical presence of the building in focus.

You can see more images of the project on our website.
