New York Condo: Schematic Design Pt. I

We've been working hard and have finished the schematic design phase for our New York City project. If you missed our introduction to this project, a few pictures of the raw space can be viewed 'HERE'. 

This condo is large for NYC at 2,500 square feet, so we're going to show you our schematic plan in two parts, public and private. During this first design phase we create a well-functioning furniture plan. Along with 2D floor plans, we present our clients with 3D models of their homes. Here are a few of the images we have submitted to our NYC clients...

{Please note that while some of the furniture in the 3D images may resemble furniture intended to be used, many pieces do not. For the most part, these images are meant to help clients gain a better sense of how their rooms will flow with our proposed space plan. The small photos show which pieces of existing furniture are being used in the plan. Oh, and click them to make them bigger!}

Part One - Public Spaces

The foyer is open to the living room and dining room, and provides access to the kiddies' quarters and the master suite...

We have proposed a full wall of built-ins to hide toys and TV/stereo equipment below in cupboards, and display pretty books and accessories on shelves up top. Oh, and the TV fits in there too!

In the dining room we are hoping to include two small-scale wingback chairs that can be used at either end of the table, or by the windows to save space day-to-day...

In the kitchen, a settee and bistro-size table make the cozy nook a perfect spot for breakfast and reading the paper, or keeping the cook company with a glass of wine...

 In order to best understand our clients' favored design style for this condo, we asked them to chose an inspiration image. This is where we're headed...

It's going to be great!  

Check back for part II of our schematic design later this week!
