This tiny apartment uses clever tricks to look bigger - that any small space can be enhanced by

living room with white walls, grey sofa and stainless steel wrapped fireplace

In the face of good design, a small space doesn’t pose an issue. Innovative solutions can be found in even the tiniest spaces through clever use of materials and layout. This Greenwich apartment project is a perfect example. After having been neglected for decades it was falling apart, but through careful renovation, it refound its Parisian attic-space vibe that reminds one of an artist’s loft. 

The most stunning feature of the apartment was its 22-foot tall skylight but with a long and narrow shape the design needed to make the best use of the natural light. Light colors that would keep the feeling of space were mixed with pops of yellow, rust, and natural wood tones, while reflective materials such as stainless steel enhance the light in the loft.
