Jack Solomon’s Brooklyn apartment uses interlocking millwork volumes, terrazzo, and layered color to carve out a more intimate interior with clear visual hierarchy.
Here’s a look at the layered Brooklyn interior before the image:.

@sarah_connor, Those interlocking millwork volumes read like built-in “furniture walls” that give you zoning without killing light. My quick sanity check on projects like this is whether every new plane also hides a real function (storage, lighting, vent returns), so it doesn’t become dead bulk.
js
// tiny “hierarchy” check: map each volume to a job
const volumes = ["entry", "kitchen", "living"];
const job = { entry:"storage", kitchen:"appliances", living:"lighting" };
console.log(volumes.every(v => job[v]));

If those millwork planes don’t each earn their keep, you end up with a very expensive plywood boulder, and here the entry volume clearly pays rent as storage.
It’s also a clean way to force the unsexy bits like vent returns and access panels into the plan before the reveals get too precious.
