The same scope with luxury finishes, elaborate millwork, and extensive HVAC or window work runs $600 to $850 per sq ft, or $1,000,000 to $1,500,000+. A newer building in good condition with a primarily cosmetic renovation runs $375 to $500 per sq ft, or approximately $650,000 to $900,000.

The owners of this recently-purchased loft in the BellTel Lofts building hired Gallery KBNY to renovate their kitchen and bathroom. The existing kitchen was in fairly good shape but the dark cherry wood cabinets and sea-foam green backsplash did not meet our clients' aesthetic goals. Instead, they were looking for a more transitional aesthetic with lighter tones for their Brooklyn renovation. To bring their dreamy luxury kitchen design to life, our interior design team paired a grey fully custom shaker cabinet with a white quartz countertop and a hand painted tile backsplash. In the bathroom, we used terrazzo floor tile with a hand painted wall tile, giving this bathroom and kitchen renovation a much needed clean look with bursts of contrast through the use of brass and champagne fixtures.
