New York is a city of energy. But in all the chaos, this apartmentdesigned by Timofei Pivnikembraces a different philosophy. One of restraint and quiet sophistication. This space is designed with a minimalist approachwhere every element serves a purpose. We see the unnecessary being stripped away, creating a home thats effortlessly elegant. Lets walk through this apartment and see how minimalism isnt about emptiness; its about intentionality.The living space in this minimalist apartment is an affair of dark gray and white. An expansive white sectional provides plenty of room for lounging, while the large slab of dark marble in the center doubles as a coffee table while adding style. We also see a similar slab within the sofa configuration, giving residents a quick spot to hold their drinks and/or books. The focal point in the living room is the dark gray textured wall on one end and the large potted plants on the other. Large windows are paired with blinds, allowing light to filter in.Next to the living area is the sleek kitchen space. This features a dark gray marble island and four bar stools. The cabinetry is sleek and hardware-less, and appliances are fit right into it. The modern geometric chandelier highlights all the right design features (including the stunning stainless steel sink). The dining area uses a compact table and chair in dark gray.A special mention for the hallway leading to this open-floor plan. It uses dark wooden cabinetry on one end, adding visual interest, and a large mirror on the other, creating a sense of spaciousness.The bedroom in this apartment sticks to a light palette of neutrals. A floating stone platform bed (and integrated nightstand) form an interesting focal point. Sleek rod pendant lights highlight the beauty of the nightstand. A large window allows plenty of natural light to enter. The bedroom also features a compact vanity with a wall-mounted desk and comfy yet stylish ottoman.The bathrooms are a design statement in themselves. We see compact features strategically illuminated by LED lighting. Wall-mounted toilets save space, while the freestanding bathtub makes sure residents can enjoy a luxurious soak within the heart of New York City.
