Loft in Paris: windows treatment

loft-design-paris-windows

This amazing creation is a part of a renovation project of an old printing house in Paris. The loft belongs to a couple and their four children, and I must admit I have never seen anything quite like it.

The new 180 sq. meter construction is halfway between a piece of furniture and a building. I am mesmerized by the different window layouts, which are constructed from thick, raw pine wood roughly assembled. This wonderful concept of room dividers connects between a mixture of spaces, allows natural light to filter in, while creating new storage space, bookcases, a desk or simply an opening.

South Beach Apartment: Miami Style

This South Beach weekend getaway was designed for a young couple. It was renovated to maximize ocean views, creating a relaxed, changeable, open atmosphere that is oozing with a sleek and contemporary ‘Miami style’.

The original 1,500 sq. ft. space included two bedrooms, a living dining area, two and a half baths, and an entry foyer. It was arranged in such a constraining fashion that each room had a small piece of ocean view. The idea was to create a flexible open space and allow the entire expanse of windows to be seen at once, bringing expansive ocean views into this modern beach apartment. Continue reading

This award-winning NYC penthouse design is oozing with classic charm and finesse. It belongs to a European artist and collector, serving as a comfortable living space that shows the owner’s collection of art and furniture.

I’m not quite sure why, but the overall look and feel of this apartment reminds me of Hollywood’s classic black and white movies; maybe it’s the expanding superior views of the Empire State Building, the white satin lacquer walls and polished concrete floor, or the vintage pieces of furniture carefully scattered throughout this beautiful penthouse apartment.
