Architects Jess Hinshaw and Andrew Fisk of Shapeless Studio exemplify sensitive modernizations of historical structures with their recent project in Brooklyn. The renovation of an 1867 Italianate brownstone by a young family involved careful updates to maintain a connection with nature, aiming for an open, inviting atmosphere despite closed doors. Their work, which began and ended as a collaboration fueled by appreciation and praise from the homeowners, involved meticulous attention to the original features and integration of modern comforts, highlighting their respect for the building's history and environment.
The couple wanted to gently update their rooms while creating a connection to the outdoors, ensuring a sense of openness even when the house is closed.
This renovation of a historic brownstone was unique in that it began and ended as a love fest, emphasizing the enthusiasm of the homeowners for Shapeless Studio.
