An icon of the past, the Hycroft Towers in Vancouver is a landmark that is still recognizable to most in the city and it is inside this gorgeous building that an aging apartment unit has been altered and given a whole new lease of life by John Wall of Public Design. The new interior of the apartment has 797 square foot of space and with an open plan living, the kitchen, tiny dining area and living room feel like an extension of one another.

The transformation is smart with a touch of midcentury modern charm to it.Custom entertainment unit and floating shelves in wood make a visual impactOn the inside when sees a smart blend of gray and white take over when it comes to the backdrop while a plush sofa in gray anchors the living room.

Sliding white closet doors in the bedroom and smart wooden cabinets along with latest appliances in the kitchen complete a revamp that feels refreshing and functional.RELATED: Think Vertical: Space-Savvy Kitchen and Mezzanine in Small Barcelona ApartmentWood and gray are combined beautifully inside this Vancouver apartmentCustom millwork and ...
