Home Transformation
A Refreshed Brooklyn Brownstone
Location:
A Brownstone Duplex in Brooklyn, NY
The Team:
Max Aboody, Designer
Client:
Brittany Bill Gilroy, Homeowners
The Challenge:
A narrow, hourglass–shaped floor plan in
their living room dining room.
The Solution:
Move the dining room table away from the kitchen to create a parlor/living area in front. Plus, bring the TV upstairs to keep the room airy luxe.
How It Came Together
We use the ottomans for
seating, to put our feet up
or as extra dining chairs."
— Brittany, Client
They wanted a look that merged the
elegant architecture of their home
with a more modern glam style.
