Project Details

Housed in a vintage Beaux arts building with traditional architecture detailing, the modern interior landscape of this home serves up a study in contrasts. Based on a specific design strategy, the entire apartment is painted in just two custom mixed colors as a way to play lights against darks- whether it’s a dark space leaving into a lighter one or pale furniture against bittersweet walls. The addition of quiet touches, such as Hermes bedside tables and leather and sterling silver stools from chrome hearts, hint at the owners’ appreciation for fashion.

The look here is exotic but mature. I really love the coffee table made out of sectioned and worn wood- a great centerpiece.
