short lease in a slick machine: a personal essay about apartments
Hi Everyone, you may have wondered where I’ve been for the last few months. The truth is, I, like most people must at some point in their lives, needed to take a little break and figure some things out, needed to go on some long personal journeys, needed to meet some heroes, needed to just not do this website for a short amount of time, but don't worry, I'm back now, and I'm bringing the feels on the way in.
Before I present this essay, I would like to offer my deepest thanks to the people who kept supporting me on Patreon during this soul searching. I owe you everything.
---
I’m moving again. I’ve moved every single year since I’d left my parents’ house at the age of eighteen, with the exception of the apartment I had on the second story of a Queen Anne on S. Mendenhall Street in Greensboro, in which I stayed in for two years. The rest of my dwellings have been painfully temporary, with life inevitably coming around to its annual migratory upheaval. There have been many reasons why, of course, quotidian reasons that always feel devastating at the time – jobs, school, pestilence, crazy roommates, despicable slumlords, partners to be moved closer to, relocating just to get away from where one has been before. I could rank every apartment on a scale of worst to best, from most to least livable, but none of them were permanent.
Tumblr media
above: the only apartment I ever lived in for more than a year, a sacred place.
I wanted to write about the apartment I’m moving away from in Chicago even though perhaps it’s not prudent to do so – it’s never prudent to be personal on the internet. Don’t worry, though, I won’t include anything incriminating that could be construed as defamation or whatever. You can just feel angry on my behalf, which is really, truly in the spirit of McMansion Hell. And this is, well, apartment hell. The apartment I’ve lived in this past year quite frankly and very succinctly encompasses everything I kind of hate about architecture, about design, about the ways people in the profession are expected to live their lives for the benefit and the consumption of others.
first impressions
When I first saw the apartment, it was the nicest apartment I’d ever been in, the finest I'd hitherto walked the halls of in my rubber Birkenstocks. It was big and full of light, with lovely maple floors, the kind where, at the right time of day, you could sometimes see the tiger pattern emerge in flecks and ribs like those on the backs of violins. When the landlord, an architect, showed it to us, he had his stuff in there still. A Bertoia chair that was probably real. Very carefully selected items from Design Within Reach alongside enough pieces from other places to make the whole getup seem more authentic. Sparse hangings on the walls, each big and well-framed. Single potted plants. A well-oiled cutting board.
There were European bath and kitchen fixtures and recessed lights that dimmed at the press of a button, which meant we could get rid of all of our floor lamps. In the kitchen, tall, elegant white cabinets above a slab of marble, dubbed, reverently at the time, a living material. Blinds on rollers meant no need for hanging curtains. A soaking tub and a Duravit toilet, you know, the floating kind cultured people had. Europeans. The rent was at the top of our budget but still doable. I signed the lease fast, with unbelievable giddy excitement. Finally, a nice place to live after years and years and years in what could only be deemed as shitholes. Shitholes and the nice midcentury apartment building I lived in in DC, but that was a studio and DC was a place I wanted to get so immensely far from that we ended up in Chicago, the only city in America I ever really wanted to live in.
cracks in the facade, so to speak
As soon as we moved in, an unsettled feeling crept in. I can place it now as the sense that this apartment was too nice for people like us – people with particle board furniture and student loan debt. That it wasn’t really ours, we were just borrowing it before someone worthier came. Subconsciously, we knew this. We never hung anything on the walls save for the Mondaine clock my husband bought at the MoMA Design Store and the Giro d’Italia jersey signed by Tom Dumoulin, which I’d had framed. The walls were a blinding white. Putting tacks in them felt like an unlawful penetration. Our landlord fussed over the stuff we had on the back porch. One time he criticized where my husband had situated the soap on the kitchen counter, the living material which, in reality, is just a fancy term for “stains easily.”
All of a sudden, we were living under a microscope.
We weren’t using the apartment the right way; namely, we didn’t decorate or live like an architecture critic and a mathematician theoretically should. Our apartment wasn’t photogenic. There were too many bikes in the living room. We still had a garbage $300 Wayfair sofa that felt like sitting on cardboard. There was clutter. This beautiful apartment wasn’t meant for our kind of ordinary and this was made known several times in subtle and rather degrading ways, after which our lease was not renewed, to the relief of all parties involved. Even if it meant moving again.
The longer I lived in the apartment, the more I hated it, the more I realized that I had been fooled by nice finishes and proximity to transit into thinking it was a good apartment. As soon as we’d got in there, things started to, well, not work. European fixtures aren’t well-liked by American plumbers. The dimmable lights would sputter and spit little blinking LEDs for reasons totally unknown and we’d have to pull a tab to reset them. Everything was finicky and delicate. The shower head, the kitchen sink that fell in two times somehow (which we had been accused of being rough with, an absurd thought – it’s a kitchen sink!), the bedroom doors that didn’t close right, the bathroom door that would trap you inside if it shut during a hot shower. All of the niceness, the glitzy brand names, the living materials were not meant for everyday use, even by gentle individuals like ourselves. They were made solely for looking at, as though that were the point of all habitation.
Tumblr media
Suddenly, we were in a prison of design. This was a place for performing living, and we, as normal people, simply wanted to live – wanted to leave clothes in front of the washer as we pleased, wanted to bake cakes that got flour everywhere, wanted to just collapse somewhere and go to sleep, wanted to have a private life not dominated by the curation and fussiness and pressures of taste that govern careers like mine. Our house was always just for our consumption, not that of others. I spend most of my life in the worlds of design and architecture, and to be honest, you wouldn’t know it aside from all the heavy books and the tapered legged coffee table. I never had it in me to turn my house into a museum of my own clever delectations, a proof of concept of my skills as a critic. I just wanted to dwell naively. Off Instagram.
But the worst part of the apartment was that it was designed by someone who didn’t know how to live, couldn’t think of anyone’s world other than the sparse one of the architect who owned nothing save for color-coordinated books and limited edition lithographs. It had all the functions of living, technically speaking, but the way in which they were allocated and arranged made no sense. There were no closets in any of the rooms, just open storage, which only works for people who don’t actually have things. The tub wasn’t caulked to the wall so that it would appear to float, a nice aesthetic effect which made taking showers annoying and perhaps bad for the walls.
Above all, I hated the kitchen the most. The kitchen was basically ten feet of counter space, with giant cabinets extending to the ceiling, far beyond what any normal person could reach without a stepladder, the upper shelves of which being where things went to be forgotten. A sink punctuated the center of the marble countertop – and marble is a terrible material for a countertop. It stains and wears with water. It shows all mess mercilessly. There was a stove and a fridge just, like, in the kitchen attached to nothing. The gas stove had no overhead ventilation and every time we used it we had to open the door so the smoke alarm wouldn’t go off. It was a kitchen designed by people who never cooked: too small, inefficient, laid out in the way it was, like so many apartment kitchens, so that it shared services with the same wall as the bathroom. We couldn’t put anything in the finicky sink to soak so the counter was always crowded with dishes. We had no dishwasher because that would mean ceding the only bottom cabinet that was truly usable.
It angered me, really, as an architecture critic, that this apartment, which had so very much been made to be ogled and looked at and oohed and ahhed over by people of taste was absolutely, for a lack of a better word, bullshit. That it was beautiful but unlivable, like some kind of joke made only for people like me to laugh at. I love design, obviously, but I hate the pressure to have to perform taste in the most intimate of one’s settings and this was the epitome of that, the untouchableness of it, the smug superiority of its flavorless emptiness. I’m not a curator of other people’s gazes when I’m in my pajamas or sweating it out on the trainer. I’m simply Kate Wagner, living with a husband and a dog, like a lot of twenty-seven year old white girls in cities. By the end of the lease, I just wanted to move somewhere where I’d feel at home, whatever that meant. I never had the type A personality needed for pristine white walls. I hated how the recessed lights made all our stuff look cheap, like a museum of stunted adulthood.
Tumblr media
Our new apartment has a two-year lease, which is about as much stability people like us could ever hope for or afford. It’s the first floor of a worker’s cottage dominated by a palladian window on the second story that would be pretentious were it not so earnest. The house itself is a hodgepodge of the vernacular, which is what I deserve, as its chronicler. The interior walls are painted lively colors – a soft blue, a slate purple, a taupe, a mint green. It’s gritty enough to be cool and old enough to be livable. There are closets. The bathroom is covered in chiclet glass tile that’s different shades of blue, which I find endearing. But what I love most of all is the kitchen.
All my life, I’d been in search of an apartment with a decent kitchen, and I’ve always wondered why apartment kitchens suck so bad save for the obvious answer (landlords are cheap.) Like I said earlier, the desire to route services (plumbing, electricity) in the most efficient way possible governs most things, though this is more true of renovations or new builds than the adaptation of single family homes into multi-family dwellings. In the case of the latter, the second floor apartments are always the worst off, in fact, almost all apartments are worse off than the one that houses the actual original full-sized kitchen to begin with.
Adapting a space that was meant for sleeping into one where food could be cooked often required some inventiveness with regards to fire safety and ventilation and this usually took the path of least resistance, hence why most kitchens are positioned to the rear of the house, especially if there is outdoor access. (Plumbing in older houses also tends to be positioned on interior walls to avoid pipes freezing in the winter.) In Chicago, most layouts of familiar single-family vernacular housing styles are similar to one another on the ground floor, but the apartments on the second floor are always quite varied, especially with regard to where the kitchen is placed. Often it’s done, again, in a way that allows existing services to be used or for new ones to be built that are on the same wall as another unit. Adding new plumbing where it wasn't before is expensive and a pain.
However, service routing aside, most apartment kitchens are only ever satisfactory – kitchens for people who ate nothing but takeout or miniature versions of the real thing as though apartment living were just an audition for owning a house, something that’s just no longer true in this economy. This one -- with its vintage 50s aluminum cabinetry and its enameled countertops with glitter infused in them like some kind of demure bowling ball and its full-sized appliances and dishwasher, and mint green penny tile, its wonderful quirkiness and its ample cabinet space beneath the counters -- is functional. It works like a kitchen should, towards a domestic life engineered by modernism and scientific management with a dash of feminism to be less arduous. This is nothing short of a miracle to me. When I think about it, I get emotional. I have been searching for so long for any kind of semblance of a place tailored in any way towards my needs, towards my desires, which is to have enough space to help rather than hinder in the preparation of meals. Meals we now enjoy as a very small family. The kitchen was never really important to me until I had someone to share it with, as insipid and mawkish and introduction-to-a-gluten-free-recipe as that sounds. I’m no longer living for one, but for two, and I didn’t realize how much that changed living.
I didn’t realize how much autonomy meant until I lived in a place where I felt I had none.
Tumblr media
Our new landlords, a school-teacher and private investigator (what a combo) are there right now cleaning the house, fixing the little nicks left by the previous tenants, pulling out their picture hanging apparatuses, which, they assure us, we can leave too. We can put stuff up on the walls, the very thought! They’ve already stickered our names on the mailboxes, have installed a doorbell, which strikes me as a very post-COVID gesture. They hope we will stay there a long time, and so do we. There’s a yard for the dog to play in with garden beds that house burgeoning bell peppers. Our friends are allowed to come over, which they weren’t before — well, not officially, but it felt like it. There are sounds in the house, of those who dwell above and below, the sounds of life. There’s a window I wish I was sitting by writing, and soon, I will be.
So many of us ask the simple question, what is home? What should it be? And the only real, genuine answer I have to give after ten-odd moves is that home is the only place in the world where one can be truly unselfconscious. Even if that means having particleboard furniture and a bunch of bicycles.
That’s my business, not yours.

Oh, wow… I can feel butterflies when I think about it and yes, I am allowing myself to be like a child at this special moment of the year. I think that only children can feel the magic of Christmas and I am hoping to have some of that… I hope you allow yourself to have a truly peaceful and happy time with your loved ones, from start to finish.

Arplis - News: Their Washington Heights fixer-upper got a look they didn’t plan for
A chance discovery of a larger apartment due north of Midtown West in Manhattan led a family of four to a new home. Ylia, a strategy and retail planner, and André, in wealth management, found more space in Washington Heights for their two boys, ages two and three. But this 1,600-square-foot fixer-upper with two bedrooms and two baths would need a revamp. The couple posted their project on Sweeten, a free service matching renovators with trained professionals. They found a Sweeten architect to help them with the redesign they were seeking, including—by happy accident—giving the co-op a loft-like vibe. Guest blog post by Sweeten homeowner Ylia My husband and I were renting a two-bedroom in Hell’s Kitchen, where I was born and raised. My husband had moved in about 15 years ago. It was the perfect amount of space for us in a great neighborhood before the kids came along. We quickly outgrew the apartment, especially after our second son, leaving us with the desire for more square footage. We searched for quite a while with no luck. We had given up the search and decided to make due for as long as we could.  Then one day on a whim André went to see an apartment in Washington Heights. It was in bad shape, but it was larger than any listing we had looked at prior and we could personalize the fixer-upper the way we wanted.  Since this was a co-op built in 1914, we knew we had our work cut out for us. Between the outdated electrical, plumbing, creaky floors, and cracked walls, we knew it would require serious professional help. We reached out to Sweeten, and they linked us up with several architects to choose from who’d help us with the design. We also decided we’d continue renting during the renovation. Our initial conception of the space started in a much different place than where it ended! The apartment was generous in size but it was compartmentalized. We decided to raze three walls to provide a more open layout between the kitchen and the main living space.  Our architect came up with the idea of an infinity soapstone dual sink that I absolutely loved when I saw the drawing. Because we took down several walls, a support shaft was added and on our architect’s recommendation, we brought in two wooden columns to support the beam. Not only was it practical, but it gave the apartment a loft-like feel—a pleasant and unintentional consequence. In the beginning, we thought we would have a white kitchen with shaker cabinets and a subway tile backsplash, but as we got deeper into the process, we were drawn to Scandinavian minimalism. The vendors we used for the kitchen cabinets and floors both sourced their wood from Sweden, so it helped in accomplishing that aesthetic. Function was also a winner: we love our garbage disposal in the sink.  We moved the laundry room walls three times before we settled on its permanent home in a newly-built closet in the hallway! It turned out to be an excellent location for the washer and dryer.  (Above) Master bedroom WATCH VIDEO: (Above) Master bath before (Above) Master bath A fourth wall—dividing a room formerly used as a housekeeper’s quarters and the master—was knocked down to create a larger master bedroom. Our Sweeten architect drew up an efficient layout that allowed for ample closet space and a larger master bathroom that was pieced together to the last inch.  The bathrooms proved to be the most difficult with so many options and micro-decisions like the type of doorknobs and the number of lights! The housekeeper’s quarters was used as a storage space and needed a big overhaul to be brought up to speed. After much back and forth, we finally settled on finishes we felt would be unique, efficient, and spa-like. We also decided against having a bathtub in either bathroom and have not regretted that decision one bit. Our boys love taking showers!  Chevron designs on the bathroom shower floors and the glass panels were custom made for each since we had different needs in each one. Our architect came up with the idea of an infinity soapstone dual sink in the master that I absolutely loved when I saw the drawing.  Being first-time renovators and homeowners, we found the experience all-consuming but deeply rewarding. We had no qualms about undertaking such a project and would certainly do it again. One takeaway for us was to stay fluid and flexible. We thought we wanted a certain look, but when we found an alternative that we liked, we took the chance and rolled with it. The process was intense at times, but our team kept things chill and on track. We feel great about the space and the experience, and we couldn’t be happier with the support that Sweeten provided.

Washrooms That Make You Go 'Ahhh'.
youtube
New high-end and also convenience things provide for the excellent residence hideaway. ( ARA) - If there is one space in the house that has been completely redefined in the last few years it is the bathroom. Cooking areas are still for food preparation, living spaces are still for living and rec areas are still for recreation. However the washroom has actually evolved thus far beyond its conventional functions that to genuinely show its present status in lots of houses, "medspa space" or the "retreat" could be better names for it. Today's washrooms, particularly those integrated right into master suites, are being designed as well as developed to be a resource of luxury and also relaxation. Besides, for numerous moms and dads the master suite's bathroom could be the only area in the house where they could really delight in some private time for leisure away from the youngsters. Include in this the fact that washrooms add more to a home's worth than other space-- with the feasible exemption of the kitchen and so it's not surprising that an increasing number of people are investing a growing number of time and money to develop an in-home hideaway in their master bath. It's Like An Outing to the Day spa-- In your home. Upright Medspas, which incorporate several showerheads, water diverters and also sophisticated temperature control systems, are probably the greatest trend in today's bathrooms. They offer the leisure as well as luxury of a whirlpool medspa, however without the moment needed to fill up a large bathtub. As well as they still function as a normal shower for times when capability is necessary. Moen Inc., which could have coined the phrase "Upright Spa" when it brought its shower/spa product to market in 2000 claims customer need as well as approval of the principle has been increasing gradually as more customers familiarize the choice to transform their showers into spa-like sanctuaries. " We're seeing more customers make deluxe a concern when they redesign their washrooms, and products such as the Upright Spa are amongst one of the most desired add-ons," stated Gary Pember, Moen Team item supervisor, Bath. "They desire a balmy massage in a soothing setting and also they intend to walk out feeling tidy and revitalized. No other setting can complete that fairly like an Upright Health spa.". Vertical Day spas differ in design and some, such as Moen's system, deal with basic pipes. Others need special behind-the-wall modifications to install larger water supply as well as drainage lines, or an added warm water heating system. These designs could be better to new home construction instead of renovation where whole areas are gutted as well as wall surfaces rebuilt. Yet Vertical Spas are definitely catching on as well as numerous think they are the new millennium's substitute for the whirlpool tub, which could get on the decline. " Not everybody who's had one of these whirlpools actually wants one when they do an additional bathroom," claimed Linda Lentz, includes editor in your home Publication as well as a specialist in modern kitchen and bathroom style trends. "They locate they do not desire the extra maintenance or that the tubs are noisier than they anticipated. Because of that, a lot of people are opting for Vertical Health spas as well as taking longer showers, or installing saturate tubs, or both.". As a whole, the pattern is toward larger showers, frequently with elegant frameless doors as well as glass block wall surfaces that allow more light while sealing off the shower delay. With the extra space in the shower delay, property owners are not only placing in items such as Vertical Health facilities, they're occasionally setting up extra-large showerheads or even whole Vertical Health club units on opposing walls, enabling 2 individuals to shower simultaneously without having to share a showerhead. " The shower is entering its own and we market more "showering systems" than in the past, whether that implies a Vertical Health facility, 2 opposing Vertical Health spas, or just twin and also adaptable hand showerheads on opposing walls. Individuals enjoy to shower and they're showing it by dedicating more area than ever to their showers," claimed Moen's Pember. In addition to Vertical Health facilities, several homeowners likewise are including steam units to their showers, or mounting a ready-made, self-supporting heavy steam system that fits into the shower room a lot the means a pre-fabricated shower stall would certainly. By installing a heavy steam device right into an existing custom-made shower delay, a property owner can produce a pragmatic shower and a glamorous spa-like steam bath in a single bundle that satisfies either function. What Else Is "Warm" In the Bathroom? However hot water isn't really just coming out of the showerheads in today's high-grade washroom. Maybe running beneath the flooring as well as around the towels! Lentz claimed that heated floorings, utilizing warm water running below them or electrical heating elements, are a new trend in shower rooms. Likewise, making use of towel warmers is likewise rising. Which brings us to the sinks. Yes, that's "sinks" as in more than one container-- since, if the offered space allows it, today's well-done master collection bathroom certainly has two. According to Lentz, different shapes, such as square sinks, are coming to be much more prominent, and also console sinks that do not have actually connected vanities are replacing vanity sinks and pedestal sinks as developer favorites. Relying on the wall surface and ahead legs for support, console sinks supply the kitchen counter of a standard bathroom vanity or even permit an individual to sit at the sink without having cabinets in the way of their legs. However doesn't that imply the under-sink plumbing will be revealed? Yes, but that's no wrong in today's trendy bath. "People typically aren't ashamed of their plumbing anymore. As a matter of fact some companies are offering really good developer pipes in unique surfaces that individuals wish to show off," claimed Lentz. Modification Your Faucets Whenever You Adjustment Your Mind. Of course, if you wish to focus on the pipes over the sink, as well as below, your alternatives are nearly unlimited when it concerns taps. Taps could be an important part of a master bathroom upgrade, and also they are often transformed for appearance's sake long before they have actually broken. Some of today's taps have been developed with this extremely truth in mind. Based on study into consumer patterns, Moen created its M-Pact collection of faucets for customers who want to transform the look of their faucet without transforming the entire device. The M-Pact system enables the faucet to be completely altered in regards to look-- a new spout, takes care of and trim-- without having to remove the tap valve, face under-sink pipes or change supply lines. Once an M-Pact faucet is mounted, home owners could choose from a vast range of styles as well as finishes when they later on decide to upgrade the appearance of the bath. " M-Pact is quickly getting appeal amongst customers," stated Pember. "Frequently, we're selling them to consumers who are renovating their shower room and also recognize that they'll probably remodel again in the future, or at least assume that they might. They want the capacity to change the appearance of their faucets without the time as well as expense of mounting totally brand-new units.". One more fixture that might require updating is the toilet. Like it or not, the commode is a significant aspect in any kind of shower room. But trends in shower room layout are downplaying its presence by surrounding it by walls or even putting it in a tiny ante-room connected to the master bath. As for the bathrooms themselves, low-flow versions are still the rule (despite consumer efforts to prevent low-flow requirements by reusing older commodes or perhaps traveling to Canada to purchase high-flow designs). The good news is, the newer low-flow toilets flush better than their precursors. Good idea, for, as Lentz notes, "You're actually not conserving any type of water if you have to purge greater than once.". In addition to boosted procedure, newer models likewise provide simpler cleaning. Lentz encourages consumers to search for newer versions with skirted bases that are simple to tidy. Some companies, such as Toto as well as Duravit, make use of special glazings within the bowl to stop accumulate as well as lower the demand for cleaning, she says. So what's left when you've got cereal container review your Vertical Health spa, soaking tub, double console sink, designer faucets and sophisticated low-flow bathroom in place? Thankfully, just lighting and paint, both which could be cared for fairly reasonably. For lighting, look for intense, non-fluorescent multi-bulb components, or maybe halogen lighting. This will maintain you from casting on your own in a blue pall first point in the early morning from abnormal fluorescent lights, while still guaranteeing that you have sufficient light to make sure you look your ideal. As for paint, white selects anything as well as it is cost-effective as well as always in style for the bathroom. Yet Lentz says colors, particularly those connoting water, are the most up to date trend. Considering that paint is easy to alter, why not end up the area with some pale blue or environment-friendly shades to match the remainder of the bathroom.

Glass luxury condo coming to South of Fifth neighborhood in Miami Beach
People who live in Glass houses … will have few neighbors. A good thing if they value privacy. A new 18-story luxury condominium called Glass, slated for the sizzling South of Fifth neighborhood of Miami Beach, will boast just 10 units with 360-degree views and wide outdoor terraces. Miami-based Terra Group tapped Rene Gonzalez, a highly regarded Miami architect, for the project at 120 Ocean Dr.. The oceanfront high-rise will feature floor-to-ceiling glass walls and aim at integrating the indoors and outdoors to highlight the natural beach surroundings and convey a sense of place. “It’s really a unique design,’’ said Terra Group president and chief operating officer David Martin, who could have put three times as many units on the site. “It’s something I don’t think I’ll be able to do again.’’ Glass have all the amenities of a high-end condominium. A special draw will be the full-floor layouts that will give residents panoramic views of the ocean, Miami Beach, the bay and downtown Miami and the flexibility to customize their floor plans, Martin said. He said his less-is-more approach aims to offer something different from other South Florida projects which, albeit luxurious, cram hundreds of units into a building. Terra Group applied that same philosophy at The Grove at Grand Bay in Coconut Grove, which could have had more than 400 units, but instead will have 96 — 57 in one tower, and 39 in the second. At Glass, Gonzalez said he is shooting for a building that “is meant to be light and ethereal and one that dematerializes as it rises.’’ He also wants to reflect both the urban vibe of the South of Fifth neighborhood and the beach. Raymond Jungles, a well-known South Florida landscape architect, will also work on the project. With Miami’s recent emergence as part of the global luxury real estate market for the super wealthy (it’s now mentioned in the same breath as London, Hong Kong, and Singapore), Martin said the project is resonating with New Yorkers and others in the Northeast, but that he also is seeing interest from Europe and South America.

After A Close Call, A Dream Apartment Comes True
An architect dodged a shady general contractor in the nick of time and ended up with a perfect Sweeten home
Ana and Leo survived the complex process of selling their old apartment and buying a new one simultaneously—no easy feat!—but were nearly taken by an unscrupulous contractor when it came time to renovate. They realized that they needed someone they could trust to facilitate the search for general contractors and Sweeten turned out to be exactly what they were looking for. (Their words, not ours!) Their Sweeten contractor helped them make layout changes and took on the challenge of creating an oversized sliding door system that allowed the conversion of an open office space into a private guest suite. Here’s how the couple transformed their Tribeca apartment from an awkward warren of rooms into an open, flexible space that is both comfortable and refined, including redoing the living room, office/guest room, dining space, bedroom, and of course the kitchen and two bathrooms. Guest post by Tribeca homeowner and architect Ana
Every real estate agent told us it could not be done. That, in New York, it was nearly impossible to coordinate the sale of our current apartment with the purchase of a new one. But my husband, Leo, was determined, so that is what we set out to do.
After a long search and many disappointments, including lost bid wars and a contract that fell through, fate brought us an amazing real estate broker who made it all possible. Kristi Ambrosetti was not fazed by the sell-buy challenge and helped us find our new home and sell our old one.
The apartment met all of our requirements—a 1,000-square foot, 2-bed, 2-bath in a doorman building in Tribeca, with great light and plenty of storage space. The interior, however, was still in its original condition from the ’80s; it needed a complete renovation to update finishes and fix layout issues that made the space feel choppy and awkward—the exact opposite of the contemporary open space we had hoped for.
(Above) Living room (Above) Dining area with living room to the right and office/guest room on the left; bar and TV unit niche straight ahead with TV behind folding panels
Being an architect, I developed the initial plans for the renovation and met with several general contractors that claimed to be available for the job. After comparing multiple bids, we were close to signing with one of them but decided to do some background checking first. I was shocked to find that the address listed in their documents was actually an empty storefront in Queens. The thought that we were very close to making a substantial down payment with someone that might not show up for the job really scared us.
At that point, we took the search for general contractors online and came across Sweeten. We read about their screening process to find qualified professionals, and it sounded exactly like what we were looking for, so we decided to post our project. From the beginning, the experience was surprisingly straightforward. Posting on the website was easy and we were soon matched with a few professionals. When we started interviewing potential general contractors, we were contacted by Miranda from Sweeten and she helped us through the whole process.
In the weeks we had spent interviewing general contractors, we also focused on finalizing the layout and decisions on finishes and fixtures. By the time we signed with our chosen Sweeten contractor, we were ready to begin demolition.
Leo and I had been a little apprehensive about some of our design choices, especially when it came to the changes in the layout, which were intended to make the space more open and flexible. But when demolition began, it became clear that we were on the right track.
By opening up the kitchen, the contractor also eliminated a narrow wall that partially blocked the entryway and made for a very awkward hallway. Squaring off the angled wall between the living room and the master bedroom made both spaces a lot more pleasant.
The change that made the most impact, though, was opening the office (which would double as a guest suite) into the living room. Oversized sliding panels would allow the room to be closed off and provide privacy for overnight guests. However, most of the professionals we spoke to thought the panels would be too heavy and could not be done. The Sweeten contracting team accepted the challenge and executed them beautifully.

The one setback we had during demolition was an unexpected electrical conduit found in one of the living room walls we had planned to demolish. The conduit ran down to the apartment below ours and, therefore, could not be moved. After conversations with the contractor, Leo and I decided to take down the rest of the wall as originally planned and leave only the section that had the conduit, creating a corner niche that was perfect for a bookshelf. Once the renovation was complete, this turned out to be one of our favorite features in the apartment.
One aspect that had drawn us to the apartment was a nook next to the living room that seemed perfect for a small bar. Early in the project, we pulled inspiration photos online and it seemed like designing the bar would be fairly easy. That was until we decided the bar should also house a concealed 40-inch TV, which then led to weeks of research and multiple drawing iterations until we landed on a design that met all of our functional requirements for both the bar and the TV.
The dining room pendants were another big challenge. The position of the existing light did not align with the center of the dining table, and we were not able to move the light because of the concrete ceiling. I had almost given up on having pendants over the table when Leo came across the Swell String fixture, which allowed for the pendants to be installed in any position, independent of the canopy.
The finishes for the bathrooms and kitchen were also much debated. We knew from the beginning we wanted marble tile in the bathrooms but looked at a wide range of patterns, sizes, and prices. Narrowing down the search to neutral tones and classic patterns, I eventually chose an Asian statuary from TileBar for the master bathroom and a Bardiglio herringbone mosaic for the guest bathroom floor, with the same Asian statuary in the shower. As a contrast to the traditional tile, I selected modern Duravit fixtures and Grohe faucets. The towel warmers had been at the top of our wishlist and after much research, we were able to find a small hardwired option that worked well in both bathrooms.
For our small galley kitchen, we chose the same low-maintenance quartz countertops we had in our previous apartment, paired with white custom cabinets and integrated Bosch appliances. The cabinets were finished with black linear pulls with accent walnut shelves added on the back wall for some extra storage. The backsplash was probably one of the toughest decisions—with so many interesting materials and patterns to choose from, we considered all sorts of options, from large back-painted glass panels to intricate mosaics. As a way to balance the modern cabinets and countertops, we decided on marble subway tile from TileBar.
Our main goals for the master bedroom were to maximize storage and improve circulation. So the swing bedroom door was replaced with a pocket door, improving access to a long wall of closets that ended in a small custom-made vanity at the corner of the room.
In the end, Leo and I found that all the time spent obsessing over the small details really paid off—it all came together as we had hoped and we were very happy, not only with our choices but with the quality of execution and expertise the Sweeten contractor and his team brought to the project. Most importantly, knowing Sweeten was following the project, and touching base with us periodically gave us peace of mind through the whole process.
Thanks to Ana and Leo for sharing their impeccable renovation—we’re so glad you found Sweeten!
