The Oro Condominium, located on 306 Gold Street in Downtown Brooklyn, offers modernly renovated luxury apartments.

The project’s challenge was to revive the Sale Center’s lifeless apartments, on a minimal budget and within a short period of time. Delphine Mauroit brought into play her artistic touch, creative ideas, and a vibrant range of colors, designs and accessories. A careful choice of furniture, paintings, and wall décor altered the dull atmosphere of the rooms and created a personal, inviting tone.

In the Studio Apartment, the kitchen area is an integral part of the living space, and thus matches in colors and style to the rest of the apartment. Colors white, wood and silver dominate throughout the space, while hints of ruby and pink make their way around in the form of pillows, candles and artwork. A verse by the French songwriter Benabar graces the maroon wall, suggesting how simple love could be without all the expectations imposed by society. This original wall is transposed to the rest of the apartment, creating a chic, yet warm ambience.

A different, more temperate ornament was used to adorn the One-Bedroom Apartment: bamboo foliage shoots out from the parquet floor through the stark white walls in the kitchen; and plain black & beige flowers pop out the gray wallpaper in the bedroom.

The Two-Bedroom Apartment is stylish and elegant. The living area is led by colors white and dark-brown, with touches of dark red. The sobriety of the space gives the room a sense of grace and sophistication. In the master bedroom, sensual tones of plum, latte and dark chocolate, along with the tough angular wooden furniture and the natural accessories, evoke stylish vibes and a warm home-y feel. The child’s room was enhanced with pastel bands of pink, blue, yellow and green, some of which are crossing from one wall to the other leaving a trace on the ceiling. The light colorful walls and furnishings, contrasting the dark hard wood floor, provide the right mix of flair and innocence. Although each room is unique in its own way, each fits perfectly well with the others.

The Offices offer class and comfort. Soft silver satiny velvet chairs are awaiting their guests by the windows to show off the glamorous view of Downtown’s Brooklyn and Manhattan's skyline.
