This Park Avenue apartment represents the evolution of a family's home over two decades. What began as a traditional residence has been transformed into a space that reflects the clients' contemporary sensibilities while honoring the building's pre-war heritage.
The design creates a dialogue between old and new—restoring original moldings and herringbone floors while introducing contemporary art, sculptural furniture, and a restrained material palette that feels both timeless and current.
Every room was designed for how the family actually lives: spaces for gathering, for quiet contemplation, for work, and for rest. The result is a home that feels edited, intentional, and deeply personal.
The apartment's original architectural details—crown moldings, baseboards, and the signature herringbone oak floors—were carefully restored. Against this classical backdrop, we introduced contemporary elements that create tension and interest.
The clients' extensive art collection guided many design decisions. We created gallery-like moments throughout the apartment, with carefully considered lighting and spatial sequencing that allows each piece to be experienced fully.
A limited palette of materials—white oak, Calacatta marble, brushed brass, and natural linen—creates cohesion throughout the apartment. Each material appears in multiple contexts, creating a sense of continuity from room to room.
