“Our clients wanted a home that felt like a boutique hotel with a lavish yet tranquil tonal and textural intensity that was rich in substance, not excess trimmings.”

Moody, earthy and sensuous this Sydney waterfront home by YSG features a lush material palette of glass bricks, stone, zellige tiles, tadelakt and woven raffia. Central to it all is the monolithic stone and mosaic tile kitchen island, the black diamond of the design.

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.

Emma Beryl strives to create beauty and interest in every space.”
