This is a project on 72nd Street of the Upper West Side 72 which is close to Central Park in Manhattan.<\/p>\n
The client is a successful media consultant, well-traveled, sophisticated, art collector and fond of art-deco\/ mid-century furniture. <\/p>\n
The challenge of interior design in an old building in Manhattan is to create more storage space, more closets, and the bathroom and kitchen are usually not very big. Sometimes I wish I could be a magician liked David Copperfield so I could ‘create’ more square footage in every project I work on.<\/p>\n
After a couple of months working on the space planning and furniture, we started the renovation.<\/p>\n
