Design challenges & solutions
Open-plan acoustics & layout:
The original plan offered limited workspace and no clean look. Our team reimagined the space into a U-shaped configuration with a waterfall island that extends the counter while adding a cozy dining zone — perfect for compact Manhattan living.
Expanding the space:
The high-gloss SandGrey finish enhances natural light and creates depth, while the marble-patterned surfaces bring warmth and sophistication, making the small space feel expansive.
Usability:
Smart storage solutions — from the Le Mans corner unit to Ambia Line inserts — ensure every cabinet has purpose. The result: a minimal, ergonomic layout designed for real daily comfort.
