Nestled in the heart of New York City, Apartment 3527 is a masterclass in efficient design and thoughtful restoration. This ingenious renovation of a 1921-built apartment seamlessly blends traditional detailing with modern interventions, yielding a space that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The cruciform layout, divided into four quadrants, cleverly maximizes usable space while eliminating corridors, making every square foot count. Storage closets, bookshelves, and a bathroom are used to construct thickened thresholds, providing privacy and separation within the compact footprint.

Throughout the apartment, original trim, moldings, and picture rails have been meticulously restored, serving as inspiration for the new design elements. The primary bedroom door, which cuts through the wardrobe, is one example of this approach. It maintains the scale and proportions of the original doorways, but doesn't simply replicate them.
Each room in Apartment 3527 is well-proportioned, organized, and located, providing a perfect balance of space and efficiency. The result is a tranquil oasis in the midst of the bustling city, where every aspect has been carefully considered to meet the owners' precise needs, eliminating waste and maximizing functionality. The result is a thoughtful design which creates a sense of spaciousness within a small footprint, a rare find in dense urban settings like New York City.
