This Used to Be the Ex-Lax Factory
Briefly

David Finch discovered a two-bedroom apartment in a converted Ex-Lax factory with high ceilings and cement columns. Though initially hesitant due to a single awkward bathroom, designer Danielle Fennoy assured him it could be reconfigured. Over an eight-month restoration project, they exposed raw concrete ceilings and incorporated personal elements like vintage glass doorknobs and a chandelier. A unique guitar pick-shaped dining table proposed by Fennoy became a highlight, despite earlier doubts from Finch and others.
