Recycled Subway Spaces

Adam Kushner Uses Reclaimed Materials to Make an Epic Apartment

His design aesthetic brings new meaning to the idea of urban interior design by incorporating old subway parts as doors and deli cutting boards to make floors. Despite the crafty use of reclaimed materials however, the apartment is anything if not luxurious. On the second floor, Adam Kushner added a retractable roof that opens up to a terrace that is complete with a meditation pool.
