In addition to offering a living area with a 22-foot-tall ceiling and giant skylight, it bore the ghost marks of the previous occupants: for decades an artist couple had used the space as their studio/crash pad—and painted […] Small Space Design, Small Spaces, Walk Up Apartment, Space Saving Bedroom, Box Bedroom, Bed Room, Tall Ceilings, Design Solutions, Great Rooms
