Making the most of a compact New York City apartment is not unlike like solving a jigsaw puzzle—precise configuration and adjacencies are imperative for all the pieces to fit together perfectly. We renovated a one-bedroom in an erstwhile factory building in the Flatiron district, then our clients acquired the studio next door and we designed a new, conjoined apartment. Throughout the apartment, the variations in materials and the subtle architectural divisions work together to nurture a sense of unfolding spaces ripe for discovery—an antidote to the typical loft experience of one big reveal.
