The mammoth phalanxes of white-brick apartment houses that proliferated in the 1960s occupy an architectural purgatory; generic, with boxy interiors devoid of detail, many aren’t even interesting enough to excite a raised eyebrow. Our solution for this exemplar near Astor Place, which fortunately was blessed with premium skyline views, was to relieve the interior ordinariness by stimulating the senses with tactile variety. Axis Mundi created a complexly layered textural palette that injects visual adrenaline into the architectural envelope: a television set into a waxed steel panel topped by clerestory windows with a built-in planter for grasses; wenge wood walls rising from richly figured walnut floors; white subway tile surrounding a subtly colored penny-tile mosaic tub and wall; in the kitchen, Venetian plaster, steel, stone and wood mix harmoniously as a surprisingly spiced exotic concoction. The interiors exude a confident masculinity that challenges the complacency of bland, white-box living.

This homeowner wanted an updated modern design without being contemporary and have a Spa-Like feel. She also wanted the bathroom designed to age in place and have easy accessibility. We installed an ADA compliant bidet/toilet, made the shower area curbless with a linear drain, and installed a floating bench which frees up floor space. The built-in defogger on the lighted mirror is a must when taking long stress-relieving showers. What a Transformation and Statement the Dolomite Marble makes!!!

The exterior of this home has been transformed with a redesign of the front portico and the small dormer to the right. This whole-home remodel and addition was designed and built by Meadowlark Design + Build in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Photos by Sean Carter.

With warm orange and white floor tile this Palm Springs Oasis, masterfully designed by Danielle Nagel, brings new life to the timeless checkerboard pattern. DESIGN Danielle Nagel PHOTOS Danielle Nagel Tile Shown: 3x12 in Koi & Milky Way
