Concrete-like tiles and linear white textured laminate built-ins extend from kitchen to dining/living/bed/bath areas creating synergy and storage for clutter-free living, with mid-wood open boxes featuring accent lights highlighting artifacts. Bathrooms reconfigured to a combination of two-part spa with sliding glass wall in master suite, with powder-room/his bathroom featuring shower and adjacent compact W/D closet.

This was a quick fix of an ugly pink color mistake. I made it beautiful in two layers, one darker, one to wash it out. This is pretty similar to a leather finish but with different colors.

The best features of this loft were formerly obscured by its worst. While the apartment has a rich history—it’s located in a former bike factory, it lacked a cohesive floor plan that allowed any substantive living space. A retired teacher rented out the loft for 10 years before an unexpected fire in a lower apartment necessitated a full building overhaul. He jumped at the chance to renovate the apartment and asked InSitu to design a remodel to improve how it functioned and elevate the interior. We created a plan that reorganizes the kitchen and dining spaces, integrates abundant storage, and weaves in an understated material palette that better highlights the space’s cool industrial character.

Everyone loves a sea turtle and some bubbles! I love this jellyfish, I found it on a vintage poster that was for sale on the internet. I pumped up a color a bit, but sea life is pretty amazing.
