Creative design firm STUDIOLAB, has designed the renovation of a two-bedroom apartment in a 1920s building in New York City.
Inside, a large floating ceiling with perimeter cove lighting was built over the living and dining space to accentuate the extra tall ceiling height. In the living room, a high gloss shelving unit has been mounted to the wall, providing a designated area for the television and decorative items.

The ceiling also hides LED recessed lighting, speakers, and sprinkler heads. A minimalist pendant light hangs above the dining table, while red artwork adds a pop of color to the open interior.

In the kitchen, high gloss gray lacquer cabinets have been used to complement the living room TV unit. The kitchen also features custom flush pivot doors on either end, built to look like part of the kitchen cabinetry. One of the doors reveals a hidden office, while the other leads to a guest bathroom.
