Prewar bones. Rooms that finally work.
We design Brooklyn apartments, co-ops and condos — planned to the inch, drawn so your board’s reviewing architect has fewer questions to ask. Design services only: you contract directly with a DCWP-licensed contractor for construction.

What we do
Three kinds of work, one kind of building.
We only design apartments — prewar walk-ups, elevator co-ops, new condos. It means we already know the questions your managing agent will ask.
Small spaces, to the inch
Studios, one-bedrooms and galley kitchens. Built-ins that hold a bed, a desk and a winter coat collection in the same wall.
Small spacesCo-op & condo packages
The design portion of your alteration package, coordinated with your architect, contractor and managing agent.
Board packagesHow a small room comes together
Walls first. Then the inches.
Scroll to watch a 12-by-10 living room assemble in the order we design it — shell, millwork, furniture, light.
- Shell & floorMeasure-up, existing conditions, the parquet we keep.
- MillworkBuilt-in bookcase and a window seat with storage below.
- FurnitureSized to the plan, not the showroom: rug, sofa, table, chair.
- Light & lifeThree circuits of light, a plant that will survive a north window.
Before / after
A galley kitchen, reconsidered.
Same footprint, same plumbing wall — a dropped soffit removed, uppers traded for open shelves and a window brought back into the room. Drag the handle or use the arrow keys.
BeforeAfter · concept
Concept illustrations — not photographs of a specific apartment. Real before/after photos are published only with the owner's written consent and without identifying the building.
Co-op & condo board packages
Most of the waiting happens before the first hammer.
An alteration agreement can ask for sealed drawings, the board architect's review, insurance certificates naming the board and managing agent, a security deposit and a work schedule that fits the building. We prepare the design portion and keep everyone's documents moving.
No one can guarantee board approval — not us, not your architect. We help you submit a package that is complete the first time.

Buildings we know
Six kinds of Brooklyn building, and their rules.
We don't show showroom or brand logos. What we can show is the kind of building we already know how to read, from alteration agreements to riser locations.

Materials
We keep what the building gave you.
Parquet gets refinished, not covered. Plaster gets patched, not boarded. New work — tile, millwork, brass — is chosen to sit next to 1920s details without pretending to be them.
See the small-space approachStart with a two-hour layout consult.
We come to the apartment, measure, and leave you with two layout options for a flat $650, credited to full design if you continue.

Services
Design for apartments, from one room to all of them.
Seven ways to work with us. Flat fees where scope is predictable, hourly where it isn't — written into a signed agreement before any work starts.
Small-Space Layout Consult
A two-hour working session in your apartment followed by a measured plan with two layout options and a prioritized list of moves.

15%of net product cost
Virtual Design Hour
A one-hour video consult for a single room or decision — paint, rug size, layout, lighting — with written notes afterward.
$295per hour
What's included in every design project
- Measured existing-conditions plan
- Proposed plan, elevations and lighting plan
- Finish, fixture and furniture schedules
- Bid-set review with your contractor
- Site visits during construction (as listed in your agreement)
What we don't do — on purpose
- Construction. Design services only; construction is contracted directly between you and a DCWP-licensed home improvement contractor.
- Architecture & DOB filings. Sealed drawings and filings come from an independent NY-licensed RA or PE.
- Holding your construction money. Deposits go to your contractor under a written contract, as NY law requires.
We do not hold a DCWP home improvement contractor license because we never sell, manage or sign construction contracts.
Not sure which service fits?
A Virtual Design Hour is the cheapest way to find out.
Home / Small spaces
Small spaces
Every inch gets a job description.
Studios, one-bedrooms, galley kitchens and the maid's room at the end of the hall. We plan small apartments the way a cabinetmaker plans a drawer.
Six moves we make often
- Wall-depth storage. A 14-inch-deep wall of cabinets beats three freestanding pieces.
- Furniture that folds. Wall beds and drop-leaf tables, drawn into millwork so they don't look like compromises.
- Zones without walls. Ceiling-track curtains, rugs and lighting circuits that separate sleep, work and guests.
- Doors that disappear. Pocket and barn-track doors where swing space eats a room.
- Galley logic. Work triangle, landing space either side of the range, one tall pantry instead of five uppers.
- Light in layers. Three circuits per room minimum — ambient, task, and something warm for evenings.
Millwork detail
Window seat & bookcase, drawn to the inch.
An elevation from a typical prewar living-room wall: radiator enclosure, deep seat with drawers, and shelves sized for real books.
Concept drawing, not a construction document. Shop drawings come from your millworker and are reviewed by us.

When small needs a permit — and when it doesn't
Millwork, furniture, lighting on existing circuits and finishes usually stay inside a building's "decorative" category. Moving plumbing, gas or walls usually does not — and that's where your RA/PE and board come in. We'll tell you which side of the line each idea falls on before you fall in love with it.
How board packages workHome / Co-op & condo packages
Co-op & condo board packages
The alteration package, without the guesswork.
Most Brooklyn co-ops and many condos require board approval before renovation work begins. Here is what that usually involves — and which parts we handle.
Board approval is never guaranteed.
Every board and its reviewing architect decide independently. We prepare a complete, clear design package and help you anticipate common requests; we do not promise approval or timelines, and no one honestly can.
What's usually in the package
A planning aid, not legal advice. Your building's alteration agreement governs.

A classic five that found a sixth room.
A couple with a toddler in a 1920s Park Slope co-op “classic five,” both working from home part-time.
The task
Find a nursery and a real home office without moving, renovate a dated galley kitchen, and get through an alteration agreement with a strict board.
What we did
Reworked the maid’s room into a nursery with a closet wall, opened the kitchen to the dining room within the building’s wet-over-dry rules, designed a pocket office in the foyer, and prepared the design portion of the board package with the family’s RA.

Retainer, cancellation & refunds
Retainer. A retainer of 25% of the flat fee is due when you sign the design agreement and is credited to your first invoice. Consults are paid in full at booking.
Cancellation before measure-up. If you cancel in writing before our first site visit, we refund the retainer minus an administrative fee of $150.
Cancellation after work begins. Either party may end the agreement with written notice. You pay for work performed to the date of notice at the hourly rates in your agreement; any unused retainer is refunded within 14 days.
Consults and Virtual Design Hours. Reschedule free with 48 hours' notice; later cancellations are non-refundable but may be rescheduled once.
Procurement. Furniture orders are placed only after your written approval and payment. Vendor return and restocking policies apply; custom items are usually non-returnable.
What our fees never include
- Construction costs or contractor deposits — paid directly to your contractor under a written contract
- Fees of your RA/PE, the board's architect or the managing agent
- DOB, filing or permit fees
- Building security deposits
Design services only. Construction is contracted directly between you and a DCWP-licensed home improvement contractor. We do not accept construction deposits.
Home / About
About the studio
A small studio for the buildings people inherit.
Prewar Studio is a small interior and renovation design practice in Brooklyn working only on apartments, co-ops and condos.
We like the buildings most people inherit rather than choose: plaster walls, parquet floors, galley kitchens and the occasional maid's room nobody knows what to do with. Our work is planning to the inch, built-ins that earn their space, and design documents a co-op board and its architect can review without a second round of questions.
We are a design-only studio. Construction is contracted directly between you and a DCWP-licensed home improvement contractor, and sealed drawings and DOB filings come from an independent New York-licensed architect or engineer. We tell you early what a building is likely to allow — and we never promise a board's approval.
Team

Home / FAQ
Questions
Straight answers.
Are you architects or contractors?
Neither. We are an interior and renovation design studio. Sealed drawings and DOB filings are prepared by an independent New York-licensed architect (RA) or engineer (PE), and construction is contracted directly between you and a DCWP-licensed home improvement contractor.
Can you guarantee my co-op board will approve the renovation?
No. No one can. We prepare a clear, complete design package and help you anticipate what your building usually asks for, but every board and its reviewing architect decide independently.
How much does a renovation cost in a Brooklyn co-op?
It depends on scope, building rules and finishes. For recent Brooklyn co-op projects, kitchen renovations have run roughly $65,000–$140,000 in construction alone. We help you set a budget before drawings begin; your contractor's written bid is the number that counts.
Do you work outside Brooklyn?
Mostly Brooklyn, with occasional projects in Manhattan and Queens. Virtual Design Hours are available anywhere in the US.
Is the design retainer refundable?
The retainer (25% of a flat fee, or $650 for a consult) is credited to your first invoice. If you cancel in writing before the measure-up, we refund it minus a $150 administrative fee within 14 days; after work begins, it covers hours already spent. Full terms are on our Fees page.
Who owns the drawings?
We keep copyright in our design documents; you receive a license to use them for your apartment's renovation. Details are in our Terms & Conditions.
Will you photograph my apartment for your portfolio?
Only with your written permission. We never publish images that identify you, your neighbors or your building without consent.
How long does a typical project take?
Design usually takes 6–12 weeks; board review and construction add time that depends on your building's schedule, including summer-only work windows in some co-ops.

Privacy Policy
2026 · prewarstudio.com · Prewar Studio LLC
This document describes the rules and disclosures for this particular business and its stated services. Its operational details are drawn from the supplied brand reference; unverified website technology is not represented as active.
01 Identity and contact
This notice concerns Prewar Studio LLC, New York, operating the site prewarstudio.com. Business address: 251 Fifth Avenue, Suite 2B, Brooklyn, NY 11215. Privacy inquiries may be sent to support@prewarstudio.com. Effective year: 2026. The website domain is the current public address; it need not match the company’s legal name.
02 What this business learns in the course of its work
Prewar Studio LLC operates prewarstudio.com in connection with Brooklyn apartment and co-op interior renovation design. In that setting, relevant individuals include apartment owners, co-op boards and project contractors. The reference describes information such as apartment measurements, interior photographs, board package submissions and design revisions. We do not assume every possible field is collected online: the specific inquiry, booking or enrollment form determines what is actually submitted.
03 Minors, updates and accuracy
Unless the offering expressly addresses minors through an authorized guardian, the site is not intended to solicit personal information from children under 13. Material changes to actual data practices should be reflected in a revised notice and communicated where required. Inconsistent or inaccurate details should be corrected before this notice is published.
04 Project material and confidentiality
Information connected with small-space layout consultations and apartment design may reveal personal preferences, plans, creative work or commercially sensitive details. Such material should be available only to people who need it to deliver the requested service, respond to an inquiry, maintain records or meet legal duties. A public portfolio or promotional use requires a lawful basis and appropriate permissions; an inquiry alone does not authorize publication.
05 Use of personal information
Relevant purposes include answering requests, arranging services, performing an agreed engagement, maintaining transaction records, detecting abuse and satisfying legal obligations. Promotional messaging is not inferred from merely contacting the business. Any optional marketing signup should explain what will be sent and provide a usable unsubscribe mechanism.
06 Direct communications
An inquiry or service request can include a name, reply address, telephone number if requested, the requested service, scheduling details and the contents of correspondence. A purchase or paid booking may additionally create transaction identifiers, amounts and payment status. Payment credentials may be handled by a processor; the precise checkout architecture requires verification.
07 Operational disclosures specific to the service
Where service delivery requires outside participants, only necessary details should be shared with relevant instructors, specialists, venues, production partners, carriers or other contracted providers, as applicable to Brooklyn apartment and co-op interior renovation design. This description is conditional on the actual service; it does not assert that all these categories are engaged or that customer lists are sold.
08 A practical boundary on sensitive details
The site is not a general-purpose vault for identity documents, medical histories or other sensitive records. Individuals should avoid submitting unnecessary sensitive information. Where a particular service legitimately requires an accommodation, safety contact, participant permission or other sensitive detail, it should be requested separately, explained at collection and protected appropriately.
09 Legal bases and individual choices
Where relevant privacy regimes apply, processing may rest on contract performance, legal obligations, proportionate legitimate interests or consent for activities that require it. Depending on location and legal thresholds, people may have rights to access, correct, delete, receive or restrict data, object, withdraw consent or appeal decisions. Requests go to the contact above, subject to lawful identity checks and exceptions.
10 Cookies and analytics status
The supplied brand reference does not establish an audited cookie inventory or named analytics platform. Essential browser storage may be needed for security or a functional checkout. Any nonessential analytics, marketing pixels or cross-site identifiers must be disclosed accurately and subject to legally required consent or opt-out choices before deployment. This notice does not assert that such tools are active.
11 Visitors and technical records
Accessing pages may expose an IP address, user-agent information, request time, requested URL and technical error or security records to the site’s infrastructure. These are described as categories that commonly arise in website delivery; no specific hosting provider or tracking product is asserted without a technical inventory.
12 Outside recipients and transfers
Information may be shared with providers actually engaged to operate the site or perform a contracted service, and with advisers or authorities when justified. A business transfer may require legally appropriate safeguards. International processing, if any, must satisfy applicable transfer rules. This document does not invent named vendors or claim that customer information is sold.
13 Retention and protection
Information should be kept only as long as needed for the particular engagement, statutory accounting, claims, security or legitimate operational purposes. Retention may vary between service files, correspondence and financial records. Exact periods should be stated only when confirmed. Reasonable access, confidentiality and security measures should be used; absolute security cannot be promised.

Terms & Conditions
2026 · prewarstudio.com · Prewar Studio LLC
This document describes the rules and disclosures for this particular business and its stated services. Its operational details are drawn from the supplied brand reference; unverified website technology is not represented as active.
01 Who offers the services
The operator is Prewar Studio LLC, a business identified in the reference as organized in New York. Its business address is 251 Fifth Avenue, Suite 2B, Brooklyn, NY 11215. The website for these Terms is prewarstudio.com; customer correspondence goes to support@prewarstudio.com. These Terms are dated 2026 and apply subject to any signed engagement terms and nonwaivable consumer protections.
02 The service being contracted
Prewar Studio LLC is associated with Brooklyn apartment and co-op interior renovation design. Website descriptions introduce the offerings; a confirmed booking, enrollment, proposal or other written agreement should identify the purchased scope, dates, deliverables and any exclusions. No website inquiry alone guarantees availability.
03 Updates and severability
These Terms may change prospectively, with the revised date identified. A later website revision does not retroactively rewrite an accepted order without lawful agreement. If a clause is unenforceable, the remainder may remain effective to the extent allowed by law.
04 Price, cancellation and scope
The reference lists a flat layout consultation, full-apartment design and per-room renovation design. Crediting consultation fees and cancellation or milestone terms must follow the written engagement, not an assumed general refund rule.
05 No invented outcomes
Examples, portfolios, educational descriptions and marketing statements are not guarantees of earnings, professional advancement, artistic success, event conditions or other individualized outcomes. Any express guarantee must be stated clearly and honored as required by law.
06 Fair use of the site
Do not misuse payment systems, attempt unauthorized access, distribute malicious software or misrepresent another person. We may take proportionate measures against unlawful activity, without limiting legally protected access or criticism.
07 Rights, safety and professional boundaries
Co-op or condo board approval, landlord consent, permits and contractor performance are distinct from interior design services. Board submission packages are not a promise that a building will approve proposed work.
08 Changes and responsibility
Because small-space layout consultations and apartment design may depend on schedules, participants, third-party resources or customer input, material changes should be documented and handled under the applicable written agreement and mandatory law. Neither a promotional example nor a website overview overrides a confirmed written scope.
09 Website and content rights
Branding, site copy, educational materials, photographs, diagrams, audio and other protectable materials belong to their respective rights holders. Browsing permits ordinary personal viewing, not wholesale commercial copying. Rights in client-created work and final deliverables depend on the relevant project agreement and applicable law.
10 Customer cooperation
Customers should supply accurate contact details, relevant specifications and timely decisions for small-space layout consultations and apartment design. Requests beyond the agreed scope may require a separate written quote or schedule adjustment. The provider remains responsible for its own legally required performance and cannot shift all operational risk to the customer.
11 Information and communications
Customers should give accurate information and use the contact address for scheduling or contractual concerns. Service-specific forms and policies must not contradict the promises made at checkout or in the signed agreement. The separate Privacy Policy describes handling of personal information.
12 What prices mean
Displayed rates and package examples may depend on scope, location, timing or availability. Taxes, third-party charges, materials, travel and other material costs should be itemized before acceptance where relevant. Changes to a confirmed order require an appropriate contractual basis or customer agreement.
13 Legal limits and disputes
Nothing in these Terms removes statutory refund rights, liability for fraud or willful misconduct, or other obligations that cannot be excluded. Any permitted limitation must be interpreted narrowly. Contact the business to raise concerns; no mandatory arbitration, class waiver or exclusive jurisdiction is invented here.
14 Third-party responsibilities
Some services depend on independent venues, platforms, suppliers or specialists. The relevant written agreement should allocate duties transparently. Mention of a third party is not an endorsement or a guarantee of that party’s performance; mandatory duties of the operator cannot be waived by simply naming a vendor.
15 Agreement formation
Descriptions and starting prices invite inquiries or orders but do not themselves reserve a place or create a fully scoped engagement. A binding commitment arises under the actual checkout, written confirmation or signed service agreement, subject to applicable law. Any deposit, recurring charge or automatic renewal must be clearly disclosed before consent.
