THE FUSE

New York’s historic Gramercy Park neighborhood may be known for its private park, but inside one nearby apartment, openness and sunlight were in short supply. Studio Rosenthal was tasked with changing that. Originally built as a two-bedroom, the home had been converted into a three-bedroom, with partitions that encroached on the living area and limited the flow of natural light. Working as both architect and interior designer, Studio Rosenthal undertook a gut renovation that restored the apartment to its original two-bedroom configuration, reclaiming space for the living room and allowing sunlight to travel more freely throughout the home.
