A notable challenge in the Forest Hills one-bedroom renovation project was the limited space, requiring a strategic approach to maximize functionality without compromising aesthetics. The solution involved thoughtful storage solutions, such as built-in cabinets, to optimize every inch of the apartment.
Additionally, maintaining a cohesive design that seamlessly blended modern elements with the apartment's original character posed a creative challenge. The solution involved selecting finishes that honored the neighborhood's aesthetic while incorporating contemporary touches, achieving a harmonious balance between old and new. By addressing these challenges with innovation and a keen eye for design, the Forest Hills renovation successfully transformed a compact space into a stylish and efficient retreat.
