Architects David Yocum and Brian Bell converted a rusty, ramshackle auto parts shop in Atlanta, GA into an inspirational office for their practice and a home for Yocum and his wife. To say it’s a stunning transformation is being modest. Shown above is the architecture office located at the back of a courtyard formed by the walls of what was once an auto-repair shop. Stunning! Mexican pebbles line the floor of the bathroom to allow drainage. Narrow windows of translucent glass keep the room bright while still allowing privacy. Grand, spacious living area for David Yocum and his wife. I dig the preservation of industrial beams and accents. (via nytimes.com)

Stunning! The skylit work space, where glass doors open to the courtyard.
