Upper East Side Residence

Metropolitan United Studio served as the Architect of Record with interior design by Chris Chen for this 1,353 SF renovation, located on the Upper East Side of Manhattan (Madison Avenue and 78th Street).

Elegance and simplicity were the main design themes throughout. The bathrooms were completely renovated to reflect simple modern finishes and fixtures with accent-lighting. The kitchen was replaced with new laminated cabinetries, countertops, fixtures, and modern appliances. The galley kitchen was reconfigured to a U-shaped kitchen with barrier free access. The old parquet wood tiled living spaces and bedrooms were replaced with wood flooring throughout to suggest a more contemporary sensibility. New air conditioning units also replaced the old units. This apartment was completed in October 2010.
