Nearly two decades ago now, Susan and her husband put a letter in the mailbox of this eastside home: "If you have any interest in selling, please reach out." But really, who would give up a Flansburgh House? Fast forward to 2020, when the house went on the market! By then it was clear that three children and a busy home design studio couldn't be crammed into this efficient footprint. But what's second best to moving into your dream home? Being asked to redesign the functional core for the family that was. In this classic Flansburgh layout, all the rooms align tidily in a square around a central hall and open air atrium. As such, all the spaces are both connected to one another and also private; and all allow for visual access to the outdoors in two directions—toward the atrium and toward the exterior. All except, in this case, the utilitarian galley kitchen. That space, oft-relegated to second class in midcentury architecture, got the shaft, with narrow doorways on two ends and no good visual access to the atrium or the outside. Who spends time in the kitchen anyway? As is often the case with even the very best midcentury architecture, the kitchen at the Flansburgh House needed to be modernized; appliances and cabinetry have come a long way since 1970, but our culture has evolved too, becoming more casual and open in ways we at SYH believe are here to stay. People (gasp!) do spend time—lots of time!—in their kitchens! Nonetheless, our goal was to make this kitchen look as if it had been designed this way by Earl Flansburgh himself. The house came to us full of bold, bright color. We edited out some of it (along with the walls it was on) but kept and built upon the stunning red, orange and yellow closet doors in the family room adjacent to the kitchen. That pop was balanced by a few colorful midcentury pieces that our clients already owned, and the stunning light and verdant green coming in from both the atrium and the perimeter of the house, not to mention the many skylights. Thus, the rest of the space just needed to quiet down and be a beautiful, if neutral, foil.

Fire Season is Upon Us. Mention this ad when scheduling your annual visit to get an instant discount! You're going to hear me say this a lot, but sweep season is upon us. You need to schedule a visit from an outfitter NOW.

Sadly, this happens every single year. It's not just us, but it's all the other sweeps as well. We all get really busy at the same time, so save yourself the stress and get on the calendar now!

Switchable LC Privacy Glass was used in Zaha Hadid's 520w28 HighLine High Rise model Apartment as the bathroom walls surrounding the toilet and rainfall shower. When those amenities are not being used, the glass walls are transparent. When in use, the glass can be switched to "private" and the walls become instantly frosted. According to Leanna Garfield of Tech Insider, when I recently toured the model apartments, I felt most mesmerized by the BATHROOM. The marble bathroom seems fairly normal at first. Next to the tub, there are two glass-encased rooms, one for the toilet and one for the rainfall shower. But when you flip the switch on the wall, the smart glass walls instantly frost over. Leanna continued, During my tour, the guide mentioned she always points out the glass to potential buyers because it undoubtedly WOWs them & it makes sense. Its an amenity that more luxury developers are adding to their high-rises, especially in major cities like New York
