Scope
Full Interior
A century-old apartment, reset within its original envelope. Moldings, parquet, and proportion held in place — the interior threaded with a quieter, more deliberate present.
The plan was kept; the air around it was not. Working surfaces were softened in cream and walnut, the hall reclaimed as a room, and the bedroom drawn inward in burgundy and dark wood.
A room,
not a passage.
Dark wood millwork, a built-in bench, a tall mirror. The hall treated with the same care as the rooms it opens onto — its own surfaces, its own gravity.

Kitchen, dining,
in one volume.
A single room held together — cream and walnut soften the working edges; bentwood chairs and works on paper anchor the dining side.
The open volume — kitchen, dining, sitting
Dining corner — bentwood chairs, a vintage bar, and curated artwork
Kitchen — cream lacquer, walnut, brushed brass
The room
drawn inward.
Burgundy walls, dark walnut underfoot, vintage Persian rug. A room that contracts around the bed — deliberately reduced in light, softened in surface.

Dusty rose against
brushed brass.
A glossy surface palette held to grounded materials. Brass fittings, Dusty Rose tile, walnut warmth — three considered registers.

Vanity
Workspace by day,
guest room by night.
The second bedroom held in two registers — productive and hospitable at once. Reeded glass, brass, walnut.
