A playful apartment transformation

Posted on Mon, 28 Aug 2023 by midcenturyjo

GRT Architects transformed an apartment in the historic Onyx Court building in New York’s East Village, redefining its layout while respecting its original character. The kitchen underwent a stunning redesign, relocating diagonally for improved flow and functionality. A semi-open layout was achieved with clever elements like brass-legged cabinets and suspended storage, dividing it from the dining area. A playful mix of textures and colours enhances the kitchen’s appeal while a sculptural island houses electric appliances. The principal suite replaced the former kitchen, emphasizing privacy and elegance. The project included modern upgrades, from windows to air conditioning, seamlessly integrated by the architects.

“We love to work with our clients to create spaces that are unexpected and timeless … The key to our design style is mastering juxtaposition: finding balance between masculinity and femininity, using vintage pieces with new ones, and combining unexpected materials. Emma Beryl strives to create beauty and interest in every space.”

A Barcelona duplex transformation

Posted on Fri, 18 Aug 2023 by midcenturyjo

This duplex in Barcelona’s Horta neighbourhood has been beautifully reimagined by Alex March Studio. It’s a thoughtful blend of European design pieces from various eras, harmoniously combined with contemporary ochre and brown hues. The bright rooms exude depth and warmth, amplified by the contrast with pure white elements. The owner, a passionate art and design lover, was drawn to the abundant natural light filtering through the large windows. The fun and eclectic spaces incorporate pieces from the 20s to the 70s along with a growing collection of plants. The two-floor house embraces its original Catalan vaulted ceilings, pine accents and terracotta tiles.

Interior designer Augusta Hoffman‘s chic New York apartment blends modern aesthetics and timeless elegance. Sleek lines and luxurious textures create an inviting and opulent atmosphere. Neutral tones dominate the palette in the living room allowing natural light to bounce about the apartment while deep greens and tobacco tones are a bold choice for other rooms. Serene, sophisticated and welcoming.
