Interiors that define an urban lifestyle.

Since 2015, this former office building in the heart of Philadelphia’s Center City has housed 180 apartments with elegant, efficient interiors the define an urban lifestyle. Scully Co. partnered with Alterra Property Group of Philadelphia on the adaptive reuse of the former Robinson Building, earlier the Pennsylvania Building.

It is unusual for an interiors firm to create apartment layouts, but we did here, for all 20 stories. We utilized every square inch to enhance both comfort and convenience. We designed – and shoehorned in – a fitness center, media room, and conference rooms. The cyber garden in the penthouse contains a lounge and full kitchen. Abundant floral photographs and a giant trellis-inspired custom-designed screen wall offer visual access and a bit of privacy at the same time, and an earth-tone palette reminds tenants and visitors to sustain a green and ecological way of life.
