It sounds hard, but the Apartment, an interior design agency, pulled it off. They completely converted a 7,000 square-foot YMCA gym into a beautiful 5 bedroom apartment building. Every aspect of the apartment is stunning, from the vibrant colors to the detailed wallpaper and carpets. This impressive building even has an indoor garden and a 12 person theater.
In converting the oldest YMCA gym, all of the colors were completely revamped, and a lot of restoration occurred, but the building still contains some of the original features. The original girders are still in place, although restored and painted to match the contemporary style. Green rugs and pink furniture are mixed with the unpainted concrete floors. The rooms are a mix of vibrant chairs, covering a wooden floor painted with court lines. The whole building is a perfect collaboration of the original gym, mixed with a new contemporary feel.
The Apartment turned the lower level into apartment space, while they decided to keep the upper levels as a showcase of the agency’s work.

WOWOWOWOWOWOWOW!!!! Beautifully done.
Amazing pictures!
Yep, they’re cool guys at the apatment. I went there with my class this spring, and I must say that the founder, Stefan (If I remember correctly!) is a very charismatic character with some radical views on design and he really knows how to sell his ideas!
