As one of the owners of this condo I would like to answer a couple of the questions that were asked:
living room sofa: Kinsey sofa from Crate and Barrel
kitchen faucet: Franke

In regards to some of the other comments, my husband and I did not intend to "flip" this unit at all. We have lived there for over 6 years and it has been a long and painful renovation process for us. My husband built the cabinetry in the Kitchen entirely by himself using tools in his parents' basement up in the suburbs, spending every weekend and holidays up there for a year. It is a beautifully crafted space and it is a real pleasure to cook in. The space is only 7' wide so we had to make the best of that footprint. Expansion was not an option- the building risers kept the width what it is. Prior to this there was one drawer in the Kitchen- there was also a giant laundry closet, a 42" wide refrigerator that was 32" deep, and a countertop covered with yellow and navy blue ceramic tiles. We chose light colors to make the space seem as large as possible, not because we're opposed to stained wood.

Regarding some of the color comments- we actually have no white walls in our house- they're all shades of warm and cool greys that didn't necessarily come out in the photograph.

Thank you for all of the honest feedback, we appreciate it.
