This bright three-bedroom apartment in a 1960s high-rise near Lincoln Center was created from the combination of two smaller units. Since the owners frequently host visiting children and grandchildren, the emphasis was placed on family gathering spaces. A central zone highlighted by a change in the wood floor patterning and bounded by slatted wood dividing walls connects the far corners of the combined unit. In the kitchen, elongated glass tiles along the walls echo the horizontal banding of the slatted wood dividers.
