The architectural bones of this 2,300-square-foot penthouse in the heart of Tribeca played perfectly into the vision of the chic design with a natural twist expressed by the client. The first of those details is the notable floor-to-ceiling wall of windows lining the exterior wall of the home. All of the natural sunlight flooding the space provided the perfect stage for the furnishings and decor.
Feng Shui principles set the tone and allowed the designer to pull inspiration from the natural elements of wood, fire, l, and water. These influences are represented throughout the space in the use of rich hardwood flooring, numerous light sources, clean lines in the furniture pieces, vibrant fabric colors, a mix of l accents, and a variety of shapes and glass pieces, all working together to generate the Yin & Yang balance of hard and soft.
A simple color palette of white and silver mixed with glass accents was created as the of the design. This combination keeps the space open, bright, flowing, and clutter free. Then contrast was introduced by using blue and lavender as the accent colors. These cool yet dynamic colors add the perfect pop of zest to the space.
With the color palette as inspiration, a focal wall was created with an abstract art piece in three installments d “Blue Moon” by artist Scott Hile. This incredible art piece is eye-catching and visible from every angle of the room.
The sectional sofa takes center stage in the open living space and provides ample comfortable, fun, and eclectic seating area for friends and family to gather. A dramatic accent is found in the silver arc lamp stretching over the sofa. It introduces another architectural dimension into the space and emphasizes the splendor of the space.
