Welcome to the Domino Sugar Refinery Shell, a unique fusion of history and modernity located at 314 Kent Avenue, Brooklyn, New York. This iconic landmark, originally a 19th-century sugar refinery, has been transformed by the innovative minds at Practice for Architecture and Urbanism (PAU) into a stunning 12-storey glass office building. The Refinery stands as a testament to Brooklyn's evolving architectural landscape, blending the charm of Romanesque Revival architecture with contemporary design. The centerpiece of the Domino Sugar Refinery site's redevelopment, this project, overseen by Two Trees Management, preserves the historic facade while introducing a state-of-the-art office environment. The new glass structure is ingeniously set within the existing shell, creating a harmonious balance between old and new. With metal beams anchoring the glass to the original masonry, this design allows natural light to illuminate the interiors and supports a vertical garden, enhancing the building's aesthetic and environmental appeal.
