Retro Song of New York is a residential interior design for a home shaped by memories of New York. The layout was reorganized by removing interior partition walls, which resolved a fragmented plan and an enclosed kitchen. A warm vintage industrial style and a modern grand style are combined through a shared grey base. Leather, wood, iron and metal add visual variety. The living room and dining room have no ceiling, and dark grey paint extends the perceived height. A kitchen island faces the dining room to support family interaction.
