This discovery allowed for the office to be situated on two floors. The first floor doubles as both a conference room and lounge, while the second floor acts as the workspace and archive.

The design called for a 2nd story to extend over the majority of the space, while sliding the stairwell and utilities closet along one interior wall.

In contrast to this preserved rustic feature, a sleek box containing the kitchen, closet, bathroom and furnace has been inserted in to the space. A white color scheme unites the interior, as black accents set off the details.

Above the oversized window which faces the courtyard, the original arch was uncovered.
