A glamorous Park Avenue pied-à-terre designed as a refined retreat, blending old-world charm with contemporary sophistication for a well-traveled couple.
This luxurious Park Avenue pied-à-terre was envisioned as an intimate, hotel-like retreat for a cosmopolitan couple. The design combines French and American modern antiques with rich earth tones and vibrant pops of color, creating a space that reflects their global lifestyle.
Thoughtfully selected materials such as Macassar ebony, rosewood, deep-red lacquer, tawny parchment, and antique Fortuny cut-velvet bring layers of depth and opulence to this timeless Manhattan residence.
The original apartment lacked the warmth and refined elegance the clients desired. The challenge was to craft a space that felt intimate yet luxurious, one that celebrated both the couple’s love for travel and their appreciation of fine craftsmanship.
The design needed to balance modern comfort with a curated mix of historical and contemporary influences, creating a cohesive atmosphere suited to their lifestyle.
The result is a sophisticated, hotel-inspired pied-à-terre where every element has been carefully considered. Modern and vintage pieces were blended seamlessly to achieve a fresh yet timeless aesthetic.
Ultra-refined finishes, including silks, cut-velvet, and polished woods, create a rich tactile experience, while a palette of earthy neutrals accented with bold color brings life and vibrancy to the space. The home serves as both a private sanctuary and a stylish expression of the couple’s international taste and elegance.
