Everyone Was Obsessed With This Home's Wildly One-of-a-Kind Design Details

"Apartment Therapy publishes a dizzying array of stunning home tours all year long (one each weekday, actually!) so it can be very difficult to pick favorites. (For me, your House Tour Director, it's actually impossible to choose a favorite.) But that doesn't mean there aren't certain tours that resonate with our readers a little bit extra - real homes that have been designed so thoughtfully and cleverly that their details stay with you long after you've finished reading."

"At the time of their home tour, the couple had spent two years personalizing their apartment - located in a building constructed in 1905 - into a space that works for them both. The couple had to get creative with their design solutions, though, as they don't own the space. Christine explained in the tour that the building was converted into housing in 2000, and that it started as "essentially, a big empty box" with sparse and industrial vibes."

Apartment Therapy produces an extensive stream of home tours and offers tools for saving and organizing favorite rooms and images into Vision Boards. Site metrics reveal which tours readers save most, and a Brooklyn loft was the most saved house tour of 2025. The couple spent two years customizing an apartment in a 1905 building converted to housing in 2000, working within non-owner restrictions and industrial, box-like bones. They employed creative design solutions and incorporated DIY wooden elements salvaged from a previous 350-square-foot studio, repurposing pieces like a bookshelf/stairs as a room divider.
