"The clients, an artist and a museum curator, have a lot of visual expertise and wanted to keep the feel of the space. They really appreciated the arched openings throughout, the old doors and moldings, and the narrow wood strip floors."
"Jacoby thoroughly updated the two-bedroom, two-bath apartment, which also has a separate dining room as well as a one-time therapist's office, now an art studio. She enlarged and reoriented the kitchen to better connect with the rest of the apartment."
"The main living spaces are painted Mayonnaise by Benjamin Moore. Things are kind of creamy rather than stark white, the architect said."
"The stove is the focus. It was chosen early on in the process."
The new owners of a two-bedroom apartment focused on preserving Art Deco details during a redesign. They aimed to create a comfortable and functional living space, enhancing features like arched openings and vintage moldings. Architect Sarah Jacoby updated the layout, enlarged the kitchen, and overhauled the bathrooms. The design emphasized light and color, with creamy tones replacing stark white. The kitchen became a focal point with a yellow stove, and the dining room retained original architectural elements.
