When Laura Hur, founder of Lorla Studio, was entrusted with the transformation of a two-bedroom nestled in Greenwich Village, the garden-level condo immediately presented a challenge for the interior designer. The different ceiling heights in the living area led Laura to rework the floor plan to introduce more functionality. She decided to swap the positioning of the living and dining rooms, which allowed for a seamless transition from the kitchen, rather than requiring the homeowner to walk down the long hallway with dinner (as the layout did before).
