A high-floor 3 Bedroom w/ home-office converted to a stunning 2 bedroom with library.(See the original and current floor plans attached)

Loft 17-O was originally configured as a 3 bedroom with home office and 2.5 baths. The space has since been transformed into a dramatic 2 bedroom/ with library and 2 full baths. The architectural brief was to create larger bedrooms and a grander entertaining space which would house an established art collection. A notable feature of this loft would be its horizontal floor plan which stretches across the west side of building's east tower. 17-O is suspended above the courtyard and away from the street so there is a sense of peacefulness and calm. Only four O-line apartments were built by the developer and 17O is positioned on the highest floor just below the penthouse. Panoramic views of West Chelsea is itself a framed, picture-perfect moment in each room.

A clever decision to clad the entire expanse of the eastern elevation in wood paneling was implemented. Imported Italian Birdseye maple would be selected for floor-to-ceiling paneling and matching doors. The kitchen, also located on the eastern elevation, was custom built in the same species of wood. The overall effect is that of cohesion, balance and elegant modernity. The lighting is purposeful and there is a fully equipped audio system. What was once a powder room is now a large laundry with storage and wine cabinet. A large storage closet has been added to the dinning room and additional storage has been integrated into the primary bedroom. The custom-made bookcase in the library is itself an architectural feature that brilliantly punctuates this well considered home.
