Candela Lofts
Project Location: 321 Newark St, Hoboken, NJ
Architect: Nastasi Architects
Contractor: Bijou Design Build
Installer: Bamco
Petrarch panel: Aluminum Smooth, Heather Smooth Matt
A seven-story reinforced concrete core is enclosed by an air-tight and continuous wrapper of insulation, ultimately finished with Petrarch’s variegated stone rainscreen. Mechanically, Candela Lofts consumes 91% less energy than a typical building. In 2019, the project was awarded the U.S. Green Building Council of New Jersey’s LEED Project of the Year Award for a residential passive house.
