New York Custom Renovation Interior Design
Style of project: Collected Contemporary
New Construction Renovation & Full-Service Interior Design
2014
This East Village home in New York was a new-construction space that needed to feel personal from day one. The design paired custom furnishings, art, and vintage pieces with made-to-measure millwork, giving clean, new rooms a sense of permanence and the warmth of a collected home.
This East Village apartment is shaped by the interplay of custom furnishings, expressive art, and vintage pieces, with a particular sensitivity to craftsmanship and materiality evident in every detail. Designed to give this new-construction space a sense of permanence usually acquired over time, custom millwork establishes a strong architectural foundation, while an art collection spanning traditional and contemporary works gives the home a highly personal, established sense of style.
Designed in collaboration with Melanie Foster Interiors, New York.
The Value of Custom Details
Custom millwork is what turns new construction into something personal. Built-ins and cabinetry designed for the exact proportions of each room add storage and character that off-the-shelf pieces can’t match, while vintage furnishings and art keep the space from feeling too new.
The Result
The finished home feels personal and complete, with details that look as though they were always meant to be there.
