A pied-à-terre, a home away from home, can often be a designer's dream project. There's usually more creativity, more of the unexpected, and fewer restrictions, since it's not a home anyone lives in full-time.
But for this New York apartment, designer Gabriela Gargano of Grisoro Studio had the challenge of designing what was to be a pied-à-terre for one family, while also being a full-time home for another family member. Something that worked when one family wanted to escape everyday life, and another lived everyday life within the space.
