Project Name: Fendi Soho
Project Locations: New York, NY
The new Fendi Store in Soho is a 5,700 sq ft, two floor space located in an early 20th century warehouse building on 99 Greene Street in New York City. AUE was engaged to transform the existing space into a beautiful, naturally lit space by introducing a large floor opening at the rear of ground floor to allow the sunlight from the skylight to penetrate to the cellar level. In addition to the large floor opening creating the double height space, a new stair was engineered for the relocated stair as well as an opening for the new lift together with the supports. Challenges included connections of heavily loaded members to URM and ensuring global building stability despite the introduction of the large floor openings.
