Kitchen
Welcome to the kitchen. If you like to cook and enjoy entertaining you will appreciate the care and detail that went into creating this space. It stands open to the rest of the apartment and the views of the city. The kitchen is a gathering spot with bar stools and the dining area is set up to create connection between the kitchen and the rest of the home. Create culinary magic in this spacious work area while staying connected to the rest of the home and to your guests. The island is angled to blend with the energy of the rest of the home.The highest quality tools and appliances are here, including gourmet cookware, beautiful high quality glass and dishware and lots of storage space. Big wide work spaces made of durable granite make it easy to handle multiple dishes simultaneously. Created as Great Room there is no separation between the kitchen and the rest of the home. This is a uniquely American feature and unusual in Buenos Aires. Make amazing gourmet meals and stay present with your family and guests. The kitchen is a centerpiece for the Great Room with the Muranese Art Glass Chandelier as it's crown. Turning this light fixture on creates indescribably warm and friendly light. One of the custom made desks angles right off the kitchen. It perfectly matches the cabinetry of the kitchen and its desktop mirrors the wood and angles of the hardwood flooring. Move in ready, all you'll need is groceries and guests to toast with.
Living area
Comfort and beauty are combined in a spacious and flowing living area to create a space for relaxing in solitude or enjoying time with friends. A vast view of the city from every corner yet with absolute privacy. The home resides on the top floor of a 25 story building and takes up half the floor. There is a private entry way to the front door and the private terrace wraps around the entire living area so that while you have one of the most amazing view of Buenos Aires, you remain completely alone in your space. In the middle is a custom built-in entertainment unit designed at an angle to blend with the rest of the home and to be seen from many different areas. It includes hidden storage spaces underneath and a Brazilian marble top. The unit includes ample electric outlets as well as cable and audio plugs. Every area of the home has been designed to maximize space for living and hanging art. Each wall is created to have space for art and each area is lit so that art and life in that space can be illuminated. The office area near the entry to the bedroom is stepped up setting it off from the rest of the living area. The custom designed trapezoid-shaped desk matches the angles of the home, the kitchen cabinetry, and is topped with the same wood as the floors. To the left of the desk is a full size treadmill and looking out through the bay of windows from the it or the desk you are greeted with an unobstructed view of the city to the East. Angles, such as in the flooring or drop ceilings, are an important and recurring theme in the floor plan of the home, enabling energy and vision to flow naturally from one space to another. Two double sliding doors on the main wall expand the view, allow immense amounts of natural light and add ease of access to the large terrace. From there the living area blends seemlessly with the dining and kitchen areas.
The large foyer serves as a place for gathering, seated or standing and welcomes you into the home where you are immediately met by the view, the beautiful lines and angles and the warmth and luxury of every aspect of the home. Every visitor stops in this spot to take a breathe as they take in the beauty of the space.
Recessed shelving behind the beam near the ceiling gives amples space for books, yet keeps them hidden from view from the rest of the home.
The office area through to the bedroom area with your view of the city on all sides.
The office area is visually and energetically separated from the rest of the space by this angled step up. It allows you to work in a space filled with natural light and is the most amazing "corner office with a view". To the left you can see the treadmill. The space was designed to create the feeling of running above the hustle and bustle of the city, engaged with the city's energy and yet safe and sound in your own space.
The hall leading to the large walk in closet and the bathroom creates privacy for these areas from the rest of the home yet is well lit and airy, another wonderful place to hang art work.
Bedroom
This cozy nook has all the wonderful features of the rest of the home, perfectly designed angles, great lighting, lots of space for artwork, and a spectacular view of Buenos Aires and the Congresso building. Slip into dream world with city lights, the moon and the stars as your night light.
