Description by Sofia Zimmerman: Our clients, a couple about to become parents for the first time, had a few simple requests: To make the space feel brighter, make the floors lighter, and re-do the master bathroom, as well as the powder room and guest bath.

索菲亚·齐默曼(SofiaZimmerman)描述：我们的客户-一对即将成为父母的夫妇-有几个简单的要求：让空间更明亮，地板更轻，重新装修主浴室，以及化妆间和客人浴室。

Since the space was renovated by a developer several years earlier, we had a good layout to work with (with a couple of exceptions discussed below), so we could really focus just on the cosmetic upgrades and source furnishings in line with the clients’ objectives. Lastly, we were on a tight schedule. The Tribeca condo project started in June 2016, and had to be completed by December 2016 in time for the baby’s arrival.

由于这个空间是几年前由一位开发人员翻修的，我们有一个很好的布局(除了下面讨论的几个例外情况)，所以我们可以真正专注于符合客户目标的化妆品升级和资源配置。最后，我们的日程安排很紧。Tribeca共管公寓项目于2016年6月启动，必须在2016年12月之前完成，以确保婴儿的出生。

Prior to the renovation, exposed brick, a mix of colors including off-white, beige, brown, and muted green, and dark hardwood floors made for a more traditional look, but it felt a bit too dark, even during peak daylight hours. Windows were limited to the bedrooms on the south and north sides, so finding ways to bring light into the core — naturally and with better lighting — was essential.

在装修之前，裸露的砖块，混合的颜色，包括非白色，米色，棕色和静音绿色，和深色硬木地板为更传统的外观，但它觉得有点太暗，即使在高峰白天时间。窗户仅限于南面和北面的卧室，因此寻找将光线引入核心的方法-自然地和更好的照明-是必不可少的。

There were several solutions. First, we repainted the entire living area and kitchen white, including the brick wall. The bedrooms were re-painted in almost-white shades of gray. The floors were replaced with bleached oak in a herringbone pattern. We also replaced all lighting (existing MR16 halogen lamps that produced very little light and burned out often) with high-efficiency LEDs with a higher lumen output.

有几种解决办法。首先，我们重新油漆整个客厅和厨房白色，包括砖墙。卧室被重新粉刷成几乎是白色的灰色。地板用人字形的漂白橡木代替。我们也取代了所有的照明(现有的MR 16卤素灯，产生很少的光和经常烧毁)与高效率的发光二极管，更高的腔输出。

In addition to implementing a new furniture and decor scheme to better suit the young family living here, we improved the circulation plan, overhauled the inadequate lighting design, and renovated three bathrooms.

除了实施新的家具和装饰方案以更好地适应居住在这里的年轻家庭外，我们还改进了流通计划，彻底修改了不足的照明设计，并翻修了三个浴室。
