Two adjacent condominium units were merged to create a new, single residence Located on the 12th floor of 505 Greenwich Street, the walls of the previous units were completely demolished and the new space was created from scratch as a 1600 square-foot home in the sky.
With five floor to ceiling windows facing east, the plan was derived by aligning all of the rooms along the windows for natural light and skyline views of SOHO. The main area is a loft like space for dining, living, eating, and working; and is backed up by a small gallery area that allows for exhibiting photography with less natural light. Flanking each end of this main space are two full bedrooms, which have maximum privacy due to their opposite locations.
The aspiration was to create a sublime and minimalist retreat where the city could be leisurely looked back upon as a spectator in contrast to the daily process of being a vigorous participant.

Flooring - Is this White Oak? If so, would you share the stain color? »
Amazing legs! - I have browsed through hundreds of modern couches, yet have not seen one as "elegant" as the ones used here. I love the unique legs! Would you mind sharing where they are from/ or where I can find something similar? Thank you! »
SpiralConeLegs.com Those legs are indeed great, I'm afraid I can't help locate them.
However, in your quest for modern legs, please have a look at ours.
Barbara Schaver @ Furnitureland South It's all about the legs. How about these from LAZAR?

Also in SoHo, this and the next example illustrate how even new construction embraces some of the loft's ideas. Openness and large windows are found, but exposed construction is nowhere to be seen, especially because raw concrete does not have the same appeal as exposed wood or steel structure.

A small divider/storage can really help define the space.
