Step inside, and the biggest surprise isn’t the style—it’s the openness. Ava knew early on that if the space felt boxed in, the whole concept would fail. So she pared the layout down to essentials. Large floor-to-ceiling windows cut into one side let sunlight flood across pale wood floors and bounce off cream walls, making the interior feel far larger than its footprint. Instead of bulky furniture, she chose a compact sofa, a small round table, and built-in storage seamlessly integrated into the walls.
