Park Avenue Apartment
Perched above the New York City skyline, this apartment has unobstructed views of Manhattan and beyond. To amplify those views, we planned the apartment along visual axes through the space, connecting, for example, the Empire State Building spire to the grooves of Central Park by way of the apartment vestibule. Throughout the residence, we situated gallery walls to feature the owner’s colorful art collection, creating focused interior moments as counterpoints to the vast sky views. Through our selection and detailing of materials, the open living spaces are juxtaposed with intimate interior rooms for reading within the fumed oak bookshelves, taking a shower in a stone cavern, or enjoying breakfast on a marble bench floating in a windowed nook.
