For the Love of Color and Collectibles
This 3 bedroom midtown-east apartment was designed for a young family of three. Having lived in South- East Asia for many years, they had a collection of rugs and collectibles from their stay abroad. They wanted their home to reflect their roots and how they have evolved over the years.
The entry foyer is a mix of the client’s mask collection, a mid-century modern bench in bold kilim upholstery and the client’s favorite salmon color on the walls.
A semi-circular couch anchors this L- shaped corner in the living room and the client’s rug served as the perfect base. An Asian slipper chair in a bold dragon fabric and a midcentury coffee table complete this sitting area.Custom roman shades in a soft striped fabric balance the salmon walls
An extendable dining table flanked with french dining chairs in blue leather serve the need to entertain frequently and withstand everyday use. The modern chandelier adds whimsy.
This candy hues filled room is for our young client. We designed the room for her to play, sleep, study with occasional day dreaming allowed.
This beautiful butterfly wallpaper with a hand painted feel, custom headboard in turquoise, striped pillows and coral lamps strike all the right notes.
A study and collaborative play area for the young girl with a water color rug to add to the fun.
This custom window seat provides the perfect spot for reading and day dreaming. The built- in storage for toys is a bonus.
The master bedroom is more traditional and has the client’s favorite teal colored walls to complement the deep red oriental rugs from their collection.
The statement headboard inspired by the extravagance of Mughal architecture in India is paired with mid-century nightstands. Adjustable wall sconces provide additional light for night reading.
This home office rich in jewel tones is for him. The room serves as an office and meditation room. The walls are covered in a rich botanical wallpaper that has a transcendental quality. Book shelves line up an entire wall. The deep red botanical window shades bring in a punch of color and pattern play.
