Historic Townhouse
New York City, NY
Located amidst the bustling cityscape, this historic mansion stands as a testament to the opulence of New York City’s Gilded Age. Evident in the intricate limestone façade that envelops the double-width structure, its grandeur persists, bearing silent witness to the storied personal histories of its four previous occupants.
Embarking on a careful restoration, seventy-five percent of this architectural masterpiece was carefully revived. Our approach revolved around preserving the original essence of the building, ensuring that its historical integrity remained intact while refreshing its spaces.
The driving force behind the interior design was a celebration of our clients’ exquisite art collection.
The clients’ vision was to create a residence that reflected the warmth and vibrancy of their family, which includes four children and their beloved dog, Winston.
Curating an environment that exudes both sophistication and comfort, each room was thoughtfully composed for a harmonious blend of color, artistry, and historical elements while highlighting our clients extensive art collection.
The final design reveals a residence that seamlessly marries the elegance of a bygone era with the warmth and vibrancy of a modern family home.
The main bedroom (shown above) was prominently featured in a scene from HBO’s acclaimed series Succession, underscoring its cinematic allure. This article explores the interiors featured throughout the show—including this one.
The upstairs pied-à-terre for guests exudes warmth and elegance with a timeless and soothing ambiance.
The interior design creates a tranquil and inviting space through the use of Phillip Jeffries grasscloth wall coverings and sumptuous fabrics on furniture and windows.
The carefully curated artwork complements the overall design aesthetic while encouraging contemplation and conversation. The interplay of textures, colors, and patterns results in a captivating and calming visual symphony, making this pied-à-terre a true sanctuary in the heart of the city.
