Pattern Book: Nomi

A mixture of classicism and modern American retail, NOMI works well in any American city.  The look of this live-work can be changed instantly with signage--iron, wood, shingle, or neon--to express a hip, historical, bohemian, or transitional aesthetic.  Ideal for artisans, entrepreneurs, small shop owners, telecommuters, and inveterate urban dwellers, Nomi offers ultimate flexibility, convenience, and dual-function elegance.  The building’s handsome brickwork is punctuated by a cantilevered marquis and large windows that flood the space with light.  The lower story features windows for display and interaction; upper-story windows are privately articulated.  The first floor includes a two-story space and mezzanine with accessible bath as well as an open living/dining/kitchen with walk-in pantry and powder room.  The back of the unit opens onto a charming rear courtyard, which features wall fountains, ferns, and raked gravel.  Upstairs is a luxurious master suite as well as a second bedroom and bath that overlook the courtyard.  Although a fully enclosed single or double garage is possible, an open carport is ideal.
