Elegant Upper West Side Kitchen Renovation at 40 West 105th Street
Before the Renovation
Located in Manhattan’s Upper West Side, this apartment was ready for a comprehensive update that would better suit modern city living while preserving the home’s character. The kitchen lacked efficient storage and workspace, the bathroom no longer reflected the homeowner’s style, and several living areas required custom solutions to maximize functionality.
The renovation focused on creating a brighter, more cohesive interior with custom millwork, carefully selected finishes, and thoughtful design details throughout. Every improvement was planned to enhance everyday living while making the most of the apartment’s footprint.

Throughout the apartment, custom built-ins provide seamless organization while maintaining a clean, uncluttered aesthetic.

Kitchen Renovation with Custom Cabinetry & Waterfall Island

Custom cabinetry maximizes storage while maintaining a streamlined appearance, complemented by quartz countertops and a dramatic waterfall island that anchors the space. Integrated appliances, layered lighting, and a modern backsplash create a kitchen designed for everyday cooking as well as entertaining. Every finish was selected to balance durability with timeless style, resulting in a space that feels elegant without sacrificing practicality.
Custom Millwork & Smart Storage Throughout the Home
One of the defining features of this renovation is the extensive use of custom millwork across multiple living spaces. Built-in cabinetry, shelving, and storage solutions were carefully designed to utilize every available inch while preserving the apartment’s open feel. These custom elements not only improve organization but also contribute to the home’s cohesive design language, creating seamless transitions between rooms and adding lasting value to the property.
