The owners of this Greenwich Village co-op apartment purchased this home with the intent of renovating the entire space. The existing kitchen lacked character, the brick walls were hidden, and the existing hardwood floors were worn. During the design meetings our designers discovered that our customer leaned towards the traditional and industrial aesthetic for their NYC apartment renovation. For this reason, we incorporated custom kitchen cabinets in a matte black finish with champagne pull handles and fixtures. To give the kitchen contrast and incorporate the industrial look, we fully exposed the brick accent wall and gave it a distressed look. Lastly, we installed new hardwood 5″ select oak floors, renovated the entire bathroom and repainted the entire apartment.
