Split-level apartments can sometimes resist natural movement with floors that disconnect and layouts that canwork against family life. We reconfigured the flow of the house and filled the space with colour: a cobalt blue sofa, terracotta rugs, burnt orange, sage green, navy throughout. Handmade ceramics, oak, terrazzo and fluted wood ground the colour and give it textural weight. Each room has its own character; the apartment as a whole has a single point of view. Vibrant, considered, personal.
