City Living

October 30, 2009

Hello Friday!  Where have you been all week?

Today we’re visiting a family loft apartment on the upper west side of New York City near Columbia University. Boasting 1800 square feet and 2 young adorables in residence, utilization of space is most imperative.

HALLWAY VIEW

Here’s what this hallway tells us: this space is going to be clean, sleek and contemporary.

LIVING ROOM SLIDING DOOR CLOSED

And it is!

Watch how this room transforms…

LIVING ROOM SLIDING DOOR OPEN

Voila!  The media center was incognito.  Aren’t those light fixtures killer?

LOVE

I love the simplicity of this art against the brick wall.

I really love the brick wall.

STUDY VIEW

A private office space is created with this same translucent wall.

OBLIQUE VIEW

As we move around the apartment, the same elements are repeated.

PLAY AREA VIEW

Look at this spot for the adorables!  The wall unit rocks.  (I’m biased: I have the same one.)

MASTER DRESSING

Love the peak at the tiled wall in the bathroom.

And finally…

BABY ROOM

Makes my day!

Many thanks for this tour to Gideon Gelber and Ben Ascher of design firm, studio g&a.  Ben was also the architect on the project.

Many thanks for use of the photos to Eliott Kaufman.

Have a great weekend everyone!

    I love how sleek this place looks! And so roomy for a NYC apt!

    How do these people keep their houses so neat and tidy with adorables running around? What a beautiful apartment.

    I think it’s only for the photos. I’m sure that play area looks like mine every other day. You should see my house right now… (rather, that’s why you don’t!)
