24 Frames of Lightwell is a newborn experiential space bringing commerce, fashion, art, and nature together in a renovated 50-year-old walkup apartment.

The project offers potential solutions to old walkup apartment renovation through material selection and subtractive design operation with minimal environmental impacts. The lightweight approach is applied to the entire lightwell and facade for the creation of "24 frames" that influence the interior environment and magnify how visitors sense the surroundings. Through the "frames", the aggregated “views” and “senses” of participants will be the continuous integration of new and old performances in spaces and generations over time.

This project has been longlisted in the large retail interior category of Dezeen Awards 2021.
