Vaulted Apartment, Manhattan
Manhattan, New York
2020
1450 sf
The view of Manhattan's midtown skyline served as inspiration for this West Village apartment. Originally built in 1896, the Shepard building’s existing vaulted ceilings were transformed into a chic row of scalloped domed arches which gently frame the views of the cityscape through new glass windows for insulation and sunlight.
A new kitchen, bathroom, and dressing room sit toward the rear of the apartment while a Mondrian-esque glass and steel enclosure wall creates a sleeping nook toward the center of the apartment. Original brick columns painted white complement the kitchen space with a bathroom swathed in clean white marble.
