Project Type: Residential Multi Family
Location: New Orleans, LA
Project Size: 17,000 square feet
Project Description
Unbuilt
The design for 828 Camp Street outlined a low rise building with nine upscale condominiums – Four one-story and five two-story units. The historic Camp Street façade was to be restored and remain with three-story new construction contemporary addition. The building would boasts amenities including a ground-floor art gallery with original steel columns, an interior courtyard pool, and a cantilevered double-height balcony enclosed by folding glass doors at each unit looking out to the courtyard.
The genesis explores sensitive integration of the Arts and Warehouse District’s emergent contemporary style with historic architecture. Existing architectural elements were carefully evaluated for preservation and then selectively incorporated in a contemporary proposal within the context of this historic site. The street-front art gallery mediates the visitors’ transition from public to private and old to new, connecting from the street through the existing building to the new structure and courtyard beyond.
