Metal Shutter Houses
Metal Shutter Houses is the first new construction of residential condominiums from Japanese design guru Shigeru Ban. The architect, who is best know for his use of paper in constructing homes, has designed an 11-story building on West 19th Street, between Tenth and Eleventh avenues. The building houses nine four-bedroom apartments, all of which are floor-through duplexes. The apartments range in size from 1,949 square feet, for approximately $3.5 million, to 3,319 square feet, for roughly $10.5 million. All units have outdoor space, as well as perforated metal shutters that enclose loggia, allowing for adjustable light control and privacy. Other features include radiant floor heating in the double height living rooms, video intercom systems and a security-monitoring system. The sales office opened its doors last week and the prices have yet to be finalized. Occupancy is expected in winter 2008.
