STUDIO RB

This apartment in Queens, New York, embraces a clean, contemporary design language rooted in simplicity, openness, and refined detailing. The renovation carefully balances minimalism with warmth, transforming everyday spaces into functional and inviting environments that respond to modern urban living.

At the heart of the home, the open-concept kitchen and dining area serve as the central gathering space. A sculptural kitchen island anchors the room—both a practical workstation and a subtle visual divider—crafted with understated materials that echo the apartment’s calm palette. Adjacent, the custom dining area conceals a discreet wine storage solution, seamlessly integrated into the millwork to preserve a clean visual rhythm while offering an unexpected moment of luxury.

The bedroom is designed as a tranquil retreat, defined by soft natural light, neutral tones, and an uncluttered layout that enhances a sense of airiness. Its simplicity is intentional, creating space to breathe while encouraging a restorative atmosphere.

In the bathroom, clarity and functionality lead the design. Textural contrasts and modern fixtures bring quiet elegance, while thoughtful spatial planning ensures comfort and ease of use without sacrificing visual harmony.

Overall, this apartment reflects a sensitive approach to space-making—where restraint meets warmth, and every element serves a purpose. The design enhances flow and livability, all while embracing the diverse and evolving character of Queens.
