La Corbeille

A mezzanine-desk is built in a loft bordering the Lachine Canal in Montreal.

In this narrow loft bordering the Lachine Canal, sitting the mezzanine above the corridor created a surprising viewpoint onto the living room. The working area is supported by a steel blade structure braced with recovered oak doors. A laser-cut Russian plywood balustrade frames the mezzanine, suggestive of an opera hall loggia.
