Brooklyn Heights
BACKSTORY
With a tight schedule in mind, we sought to give the space a wallet-friendly facelift. The original space ticked all elements that are typical for pre-war coops renovated in the 80s - parquet floor and laminate countertop. Building on minor "architectural corrections" such as closet reconfigurations and cabinetry replacement, material/furniture upgrades brought the apartment a contemporary attitude.

DESIGN BRIEF
Harmonizing with the pre-war vibe, we wanted to maintain the dark wood floor and tall baseboards throughout. In the kitchen the new vintage inspired cabinetry is paired with a modern geometric backsplash and clean hardware. The new graphic wallpaper and moody palette provide a dramatic background for the existing earth-toned furniture.
