230 Central Park West

Detail Renovation combined two apartments, and were tasked with creating a guest bedroom that could have multiple usages, while still preserving the best view of the park.

In the living space of this project, the owners wanted to be able to capture the best view of the park. But they also wanted a guest room, but not all the time.

We built a compact but useful wall divider, which is hidden in a closet. It pulls out of the closet on a hafele track and creates a private space for guests. A hidden bed by Resource Furniture pulls down in a unique way, while preserving the décor space with shelves above it, so nothing has to be moved. And when not in use, the living space is restored easily.

Here is what is “hidden” in the apartment:
– A coffee bar hidden behind a door in the entrance foyer
– Refrigerator hidden under the counter
– Room dividers hidden in closet that swing out and create a guest room
– In the “guest room” a murphy bed that swings out under the bookshelves, while the book shelves stay in place.

Project Overview
Complete renovation to combine a studio and one-bedroom apartment into one including living room, master bedroom, kitchen, bathrooms, wood floors, building risers, ductwork ventilation, LED lighting, ceilings

Objective
Open-up the space to maintain the stunning Central Park views from all areas of the living space while maintaining privacy for the client & their house guests

Partnerships
Architect

Unique Element
Customized retractable divider wall stored in a closet easily closed the space into two separate areas for host & guests, which can be simple retracted to create one large living area when needed.

Custom Creations
All cabinetry, retractable wall & track mechanism, firebox to house a custom fireplace, full kitchen, master bedroom mirrors, master bedroom vanity

In The Details
The custom mirrors within the master bedroom were installed at a specific angle to allow anyone entering to see the Central Park view within its reflection;
The shelving unit within the living area was ingenuously designed, spinning around to reveal a unique Murphy Bed to be used and concealed as needed
