West 21st Street, Manhattan, New York, NY, United States
In the hundred years this building exists, habitation
typologies have changed dramatically. Today, we desire an open floor plan to
enhance fluidity and ultimately give us larger spaces to live in. Kitchens are
no longer hidden and separated from the main living rooms; they are now the central
space of the house. Kids get their own room to create, be loud without
bothering the rest of the family, or can sleep while the rest of the house is
noisy.
Great craftsmanship brought this apartment back to life
and up to date, without destroying its' character. Ornamental moldings were
preserved and where we eliminated walls they "fade out".Precisely fitted, built–in cabinets were designed to
optimize storage. Clean cuts through the entrance wall give access to the
children's closet from the hallway as well as from within the bedroom. In the
middle of the corridor a floor to ceiling cabinet stores photo equipment and
archive. The square cabinet door handle, used on all cabinets, evolves into a
small desk in the master bedroom. At the south end of the main hall, the new
kitchen / dining / living area is revealed. All the kitchen appliances are
hidden, and every inch is used for storage. When not in use, the kitchen looks
like a weightless sculpture hovering above the newly soundproofed and renovated
floor.
