Project overview
This one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment in Brickell was renovated to create a warmer, and more contemporary living environment. The design was centered around the apartment’s natural light and waterfront views, using a refined palette of natural wood tones, sophisticated stone, and clean architectural details.
The kitchen was fully renovated with lighter wood cabinetry, contrasting upper cabinetry, a panel-ready Miele refrigerator and dishwasher, and a waterfall-edge island. The bathroom features a custom floating vanity, quartz double sinks, fluted glass, and wall-to-wall porcelain tile, while updated lighting, baseboards, and paint throughout the apartment create a cohesive finish.

Design overview
The design brings warmth, softness, and contemporary refinement to the apartment, with the waterfront setting serving as a key inspiration. Natural wood tones, sophisticated stone, and clean architectural details create a cohesive palette, while the subtle movement in the kitchen stone echoes the water beyond the balcony.
The result is a calming, modern interior that balances warmth with simplicity and allows the apartment’s natural light and views to remain central to the experience.

“The goal was to create a home that felt bright and thoughtfully designed throughout. By carrying consistent wood finishes and carefully selected materials we were able to give each space its own character while maintaining a strong connection across the apartment.”
Kitchen
Using a lighter wood finish throughout the kitchen brightened the space while introducing a second color on the upper cabinets kept the cabinetry from feeling too heavy. The waterfall edge on the island added a refined detail and created a strong visual focal point as you enter the apartment.
Bathroom
Carrying the same wood finish from the kitchen into the bathroom created a sense of cohesion as you move through the space. The custom floating vanity and quartz double sink provide ample storage while keeping the design clean and streamlined.
Throughout the space
A light, neutral palette was used throughout the apartment to create a bright and open feel. Warm wood finishes add texture and contrast, while consistent materials and finishes help connect each space and create a cohesive overall design.

Results
The 798-square-foot apartment now reads brighter and warmer, with natural light and the waterfront views at the center of daily life. Lighter wood cabinetry, the waterfront-facing island with its waterfall edge, and the panel-ready Miele appliances give the kitchen a clean, modern feel.
The bathroom reads calm and contemporary, with its floating vanity, quartz double sinks, fluted glass divider, and wall-to-wall porcelain tile. Updated lighting, baseboards, and fresh paint tie the one-bedroom together, so the natural wood tones and stone carry through every room. The clients' vision was brought to life.
