This full gut renovation and apartment combination was executed for empty nesters transitioning to a more permanent residence in NYC. The program included creation of a more spacious and private master suite and a discrete home office, provision of ample concealed storage, and flexibility to transform everyday open living spaces to more distinct rooms for guests. The clean lines and neutral colors throughout create a soothing and fresh backdrop for the clients’ artwork and furnishings. The result is an elegant yet casual home, welcoming and comfortable yet completely devoid of fussiness.
