The Insider: Cohesive Finishes Unify Bed Stuy Townhouse Reno<\/a><\/p>\n

A round of renovations in a three-story townhouse \u2014 encompassing a reimagined garden floor, 3.5 new baths, and a brand new staircase \u2014 began with a poetic concept for the garden-level kitchen. True, it had little counter space and an inefficient layout, which was especially irksome for the new homeowner, a professional chef. But more than that, said architect Justin Oh, a partner with Ericka Song in Studio Oh-Song<\/a>, a young Bed Stuy-based architecture and design firm whose first completed Brooklyn project this is, the main aim of the redo was to \u201ccreate a new identity that spoke to the client\u2019s tastes.\u201d<\/p>\n
