E90th St. NYC - Prewar Apartment Renovation
This renovation project updates an existing New York 1920s apartment with a modern sensibility.
Replacing the cellular pre-war layout of the central spaces with a built-in walnut credenza and white lacquer side board effectively opens the plan to create a unified and spacious living area. The back side of the full-height dining room side-board screens views from the entrance foyer. The modern design of the new built-ins at center of the space is balanced by perimeter radiator covers and a full-height bookshelf which work with the period trim detail.
The custom walnut credenza creates some separation between the living and dining rooms in the open plan layout. The credenza features custom sliding walnut doors with mitered edges, a concealed TV mounted on an automatic lift, and a liquor cabinet with clear glass sliding doors.
