FF Apartment: Sophisticated Contemporary Home with a Social Kitchen at its Heart

ByMyProperty Life

It is barely a surprise that an apartment that was designed for a couple who own a chain of bakeries and are avid cooking aficionados has a fabulous kitchen at its heart. That is just what one gets with the exquisite FF Apartment renovation carried out by Studio 2 Arquitetura e Interiores in Brazil as its new interior now has a more spacious common area, better circulation and a refined contemporary appeal. The apartment in Águas Claras features a polished, open plan living that is clad in neutral hues with a view of the lush green Águas Claras Park just outside its floor-to-ceiling glass windows.
