BROOME STREET APARTMENT

This apartment explores the boundary between a residence and a gallery. The pure architecture of Renzo Piano-designed 565 Broom Street presented a stage for Magdalena Keck’s signature warm minimalism that quietly stimulates the senses while being functional and approachable.

The building’s architectural features informed many of the design decisions. Furniture is placed and oriented to maximize the panoramic city views, and fully glazed curved corners are made focal points. A soft sheer grey curtain emphasizes the verticality of closely spaced mullions while creating a light-diffusing envelope around the floor-to-ceiling windows.
