Jan Loney Studio

This adaptive reuse project is a love letter to the American Garage and a gift to its neighbors. It is a building-sculpture that celebrates the creative energy nurtured within many American outbuildings. The metal rainscreen may be eye-catching, but it’s also functional, acting as a filter to soften the light that streams through the new windows. Jan may have wanted to work in an environment that was private but she wanted the building to be discovered by the public. Together with her, we designed a ‘creative sanctuary’ in an old garage off an understated Pittsburgh alley.
