With its colorful, modern decor, this historic apartment (via Alexander White) is an interior design masterclass. The walnut kitchen adds traditional warmth to the home.
A Spacious, Personality-Filled Kitchen
This roomy kitchen features warm walnut cabinets that visually define the space. Matching veneer on the vent hood lends it a seamless look, while the absence of upper cabinets makes it appear large and open.
Fun details, like the colorful contemporary wall art and paper globe pendant light, make this kitchen a whimsical space. Green velvet upholstered dining chairs also add to the cheerful, updated aesthetic.
Although minimal in terms of appliances and features, this kitchen’s large floor plan shifts the focus to sharing the space with friends and loved ones. Two large windows let in tons of sunlight, making them the perfect spot for dining furniture.
The understated design of the kitchen makes it a functional space without clutter. A pair of swinging doors leads you to another part of this historic apartment.
Contemporary Features Define the Living Room
A modern gallery wall and area rug give this living room an infusion of color and shape. The curvaceous accent chair, throw pillows, and oversized table lamp add even more color and sculptural detail.
A Home Office With a View
It’s not all work, no play in this functional home office, featuring a set of doors leading to a balcony. A simple table and chair create a workspace, while the plush area rug adds comfort.
Escape to The Forest in This Green Bedroom
The dark green bedroom walls give this sleeping area an earthy appeal. Paired with a wood closet and leafy green houseplants, it’s the ultimate escape from city life.
Lightly-colored bed linens and an upholstered headboard keep this bedroom from feeling too dark. A modern floating nightstand and wall sconce add functionality and updated style.
Sleek White Tile Creates a Contemporary Bathroom
Slender white tile envelopes this modern bathroom, with a slight texture for interest. A built-in cubby inside the shower adds a spot for shampoo and other essentials.
The floating vanity features dark wood drawers that break up the space and add warmth. Oversized wall hooks and a mirrored medicine cabinet lend added functionality.
The large, rainfall showerhead transforms this bathroom into a relaxing spa. Having a walk-in shower without a tub adds usable square footage and reduces clutter.
Relax in the Bright and Vibrant Home Library
A luscious color adds a fun element to the shelving in this large home library. The cheerful, contemporary wall art boasts an assortment of colors, adding to the whimsical vibe.
The arched entryway leading to the library gives it even more charm. A traditional area rug keeps things grounded.
Thanks to its large size, this home library also has space for two accent chairs. A wooden dresser also provides more storage and display space.
Soft Elements Accent The Hallway
Herringbone wood floors and soft, tan walls give this hallway a calming feel. The black-and-white flooring beyond the threshold suggests that something exciting awaits once you enter the home.
