Inside the building’s entrance are wooden slats that cover the walls and ceiling, while circular elements can be found throughout the interior, like in the hallway, where the designers have used discs mounted to the ceiling to reflect the light of single bulbs.

The kitchen is minimal in design, with a long island separating the dining room and a wall of cabinets. Open wood shelving breaks up the all white cabinets.
