This Manhattan condominium radiates calm energy in the midst of a vibrant tableau. The open plan makes the apartment initially appear as one sweeping expanse, with a wall of windows on the south that floods the interior with sunlight. In actuality, the interior features clearly distinct but interrelated zones, each with its own particular views. An oval-shaped, open corridor unites the spaces, eliminating any dead ends and giving the residence an uninterrupted flow. Representing the best of two divergent worlds, this apartment celebrates the city’s grit and unbridled energy while providing a collected, composed and extremely functional refuge for living.
