  Architect's NYC Apartment Transformation with Double Room Dividers 

Infinite Storage Solutions, Inc. and Koray Duman were featured in on 1/01/09.  To view the online version of the article see On the Cheap: Letting a Space Show Its Bones and the slideshow that includes all the pictures.   The summary and video below is provided by ISS:

 

New York City architect Koray Duman from Studio Urnod completely renovated his own apartment and converted it from having two small bedrooms into one large open floor plan.  The new design for his 600 sq. ft. apartment allows the sun to enter the windows from the east, north and south with views of trees outside.   Duman decided to come up with a way to maintain the open feel of his space and add much needed storage and work space by using an innovative room divider concept featuring ISS Designs Modular Shelving. 

 

Duman designed his double ISS Designs Room Dividers to combine function with modern aesthetics.  The living room divider side includes a floating desk with base cabinets for files and storage.  The shelves allow the light to flow through the space while the upper cabinets provide hidden storage.   The bedroom divider includes cabinets with drawers, closed doors, shelves and hang bars.  The completed installation shows Duman's vision of creating back to back room dividers to transform his NYC apartment. 
 
This video will show the space before, during and after the installation of the two ISS Designs Room Dividers.  For more information or assistance with your own design, email sales@issdesigns.com or call 1-877-4-ISSDesigns.

 

Cabinets are mounted directly to the poles.  The shelves are attached with ISS shelf end supports.  The living and bedroom spaces are separated by Maharam mid century modern designer fabric.

The white finish for both units is simple and modern.  The bedroom system matches the length of the workspace system.

The ISS Quad Poles are mounted with threaded compression and secured to the ceiling.  The bottom levelers adjust for uneven floors.  The two dividers were installed in one day.
