The condo, simply 350 sq. ft, was as soon as divided into 5 disconnected, unimaginably small rooms. The architects’ answer was radical but pragmatic: “Our method was to push all of the constructed parts to the margins of the condo, liberating up the residing space,” says Steffensen. Cabinetry and furnishings now tuck into corners, bespoke benches sit beneath every window, and a wood-framed glass partition divides residing and sleeping whereas permitting ambient gentle to filter by way of. A restrained palette and unique oak flooring set an understated tone, whereas the constructing’s artwork deco and Haussmannian type lend a way of place. Twentieth-century design items pair with flea market finds, including a modest layer of eclecticism and character all through. The result’s a small condo made beneficiant—reimagined for contemporary residing.
