DASH7 Design // Design Team & Client – Michael O’Toole
Brooklyn, NY // September 2014 – May 2019
In 2014 DASH 7 Design wanted to exploit their knowledge of shipping container construction to design and build their new fabrication shop. Massing studies helped determine optimal container configuration for building circulation and program spaces. The building envelope includes corrugated wall panels, weathering steel, clerestory windows, and half corrugated roof/half membrane roof.
Since 2015, DASH 7 has relocated and is currently sited in a flood zone. The building is currently undergoing a code compliance review (NYC Building Codes, Energy Codes, FEMA) in an attempt to formalize a certificate of occupancy for the space.
