Kitchen Tour: A Serene Kitchen in a Combined Brooklyn Heights Apartment

What does it look like when two disparate spaces become one? Hopefully seamless. Such was the case when Andrea Fisk and Jess Thomas Hinshaw of Shapeless Studio combined two warehouse-like units in a Brooklyn Heights building into one spacious apartment. Today we’re taking a closer look at the finished kitchen that (thankfully) took the place of two rough rental kitchenettes—an instance where one is actually much (much) better than two.
The newly stitched together and reconfigured layout takes advantage of natural light.
The kitchen, with black cabinetry and counters, is by Henrybuilt; the wall behind the counter is done over in water-resistant plaster,
A slim ledge keeps cooking utensils and cutting boards off of the counter.
The kitchen’s secret to success? The wall of cabinets at right that hides away the essentials, including the fridge, wall ovens, and a full-height pantry.
