Downtown NYC Apartment Gets a Refreshing and Colorful Makeover

Every New York City apartment has a style of its own and each one brings with it something unique in terms of how décor is used and overall visual appeal. This Downtown NYC apartment is no different with Rinaldi Interiors transforming a small apartment into a fabulous and colorful space where it is the furniture that makes the biggest difference. In the small living room, a comfortable couch in bluish-gray welcomes you indoors with the rug in dark blue accentuating the colorful charm. A bright red club chair on the opposite side as the small living room starts to transition into the dining area just next to it.

The dining area is ultra-tiny with a round table in white and chairs in pastel pink. A large indoor plant with a light pink platter sits just next to it with a small yellow chair on the opposite side of the room. Lighting comes in the form of pendant lights and floor lamps in the corner while curated accessories bring both color and pattern to the open plan living. Every little detail has been carefully placed to fit in with the overall contemporary eclectic style of the apartment that feels bright and captivating.

  • Salt Spring Island Residence 2

    This project was commissioned by a couple living in Vancouver who fell in love with Salt Spring Island (as many do) and decided to build their dream home on a beautiful high-bank waterfront lot overlooking views of Sansum Narrows and Vancouver Island beyond. The clients had an affinity for mid-century modern design and requested that the house be reminiscent of that style. As one ascends the driveway an accessory building presents itself containing a garage and studio. A path leads from the accessory building to the house which is nestled into a rocky hill and surrounded by several large arbutus trees. The house is a U shape plan framing a courtyard overlooking the ocean. Living spaces are arranged at the centre or bottom of the U with 2 sleeping wings on either side projecting toward the ocean. Both the house and accessory building are clad in black vertical wood siding and protected by flat roofs with generous overhangs. Large sliding glass doors provide seamless transitions from inside to outside and maximize the natural light. Walnut flooring and cabinetry are featured throughout the home to provide a richness and warmth. This home is a tranquil setting to light a fire, have some wine, and watch the eagles soar in front of a backdrop of pacific north-west magic.
