A MULTI LEVEL 425 SQUARE FOOT NEW YORK APARTMENT!

small apartment New York

This is what 425 square feet in New York looks like. Three levels of apartment living neatly designed into a small foot print.  When the homeowner bought the unit on the Upper West Side back in 1994 it was more like a studio with roof access.  Today, thanks to some clever architect work, a small space is given new life and more square footage by simply adding different platforms within the 12 foot ceilings.

Simple, clean lines, neutral tones with a pop of turquoise.  I like.

Check out the architect's rendering below to see how this small multilevel apartment works - all in under 500 square feet.

Such a smart use of space!  What do you think of this small apartment?  Could you live in this space?

Happy Wednesday!
