Our design for the public and amenity spaces at One Hudson Yards is inspired by the organic quality of the High Line, and the contemporary geometries of Hudson Yards’ exciting new architecture. To meet the needs of a varied and rapidly growing urban population, we wanted to create opportunities for people to have positive interactions and meaningful exchanges with their neighbors. Where an amenity suite used to be about opulence, here it is about remaking the social landscape of an entire neighborhood inside a single new building, creating meaningful and engaging public spaces.
At One Hudson Yards, we envisioned the twelve amenity spaces totaling 26,000 sf that we designed to offer a sense of place and security, as well as to provide spaces for entertainment and relaxation. The majority of the spaces cluster around a centrally-located Concourse Lounge. Each unique program space has a distinctive material palette, design sensibility, and corresponding set of physical activities. Whether exercising in the Pool, playing vintage Atari in the Bowling Alley, writing up a report in the Concourse Lounge, or hosting a gathering in either penthouse Party Room, the spaces are meant to compliment not only each other but also resident’s lifestyles - and above all - to create a truly dynamic social environment for people to use.
One of the central tenets of our work is to integrate art and architecture seamlessly. Similar to our inventive interior material palette at One Hudson Yards, every piece in the building’s curated art collection is about process, production, and materiality - bringing both in alignment. From the moment you walk in, this building engages you. The art underscores the process and craft that are at the core of our material palette at One Hudson Yards. Inevitably, everyone will experience the holistic synergy of the art and architecture, even if they aren’t intending to.
The Lobby is an all-encompassing visualization of our ideas and themes. Working with a fine art foundry, we created a 25 foot long feature wall of cast bronze panels whose organically swirled colors become the palette for the building’s public spaces. These colors and materials also reappear in a rich and sophisticated array of fabrics covering the furniture, including custom designed pieces and a gold leaf coffee table by artist Yves Klein. Two exquisite pieces by artist Michel Francois Instant Gratification, and Scribble, which are made at the same foundry as the bronze wall panels, are displayed below Precious Moments, a light sculpture by Lasvit. This piece is comprised of 400 hand blown glass components, and spirals through the space to echo the rich organic qualities and distinctive colors of the bronze panels. This is a magnificent place of arrival - cohesive in its geometries, themes, colors, and materials – creating an emotional threshold to One Hudson Yards.
The central Concourse Lounge greets residents with a massive twelve-foot long fireplace to create a welcoming space. Warm walnut millwork accented with bronze reveals, a feature wall finished with German iron ore powder, suede wall paneling and textured stone mix with lacquer millwork and comfortable informally grouped seating. As this room is a central arrival place at the nexus of our athletic activities, the furniture is upholstered in leathers from footballs and the textures from basketballs and baseballs. Artworks include James Case-Leal’s Black Rainbow XXI, a series of canvas animal tangrams by Michael Phelan, and David Benjamin Sherry’s Split Infinity, Death Valley complete this space.
Similarly, our design for the Bowling Alley features a chandelier of eighty multi-colored stainless-steel bowling balls that is inspired by Jeff Koons, a handwritten quote from The Big Lebowski that is fabricated in neon, custom trapezoidal blue suede wall panels of varying depth, and a feature wall with over 2,200 stem mounted billiard balls. These features are interspersed among two regulation bowling lanes, foosball and a 1950’s pool tables, shuffleboard, vintage 1970’s video arcade games, and a generous all-white kitchen and bar, together creating a fresh and fun space for informal gathering.
The two penthouse Party Rooms, each intimately organized around a cozy hearth with an open kitchen and with rooftop outdoor space, continue our warm palette and distinctive materials. They are appointed with walnut millwork accented with bronze reveals, natural raw linen upholstered feature walls, vintage leather wallcovering and textured stone. We custom designed furniture, and introduced a mixture of innovative pieces in structural leather and cane, brightly painted and mirror polished steel, and blackened upholstered steel. Again the art reflects the textures of these spaces. Przemek Pyrscek’s Façade layers a crisp white metal geometric screen over a colorful background composition. Sayre Gomez’s Untitled offers a dream like vision of pure pigment and form. A pair by Los Angeles based Matthew Chambers, Acts So Pure They Never Have to Act and Hearing the Sound of Morning Pushing Up, are made by cutting unsuccessful paintings into loosely tattered strips of canvas that are recomposed into gestural new works in a spiraling radiant pattern. Whether inside these spaces or overlooking the panoramic views outside, residents’ social events are sure to be a hit!
The building also boasts a suite of athletic amenities including an 82-foot indoor swimming pool, and an ice plunge, salt float, hot tub, steam room, sauna, and luxurious locker rooms. These are finished in cascading planes of Turkish Creme Ella marble, that are interspersed with a rich array of Japanese textured tiles and Italian glass mosaics. Finally, the indoor basketball court features a folded ceiling and wall that is clad in a random array of different linear wood shapes. Together these are unlike any other athletic facilities in New York City.
Truly, residents and guests at One Hudson Yards will experience an unprecedented luxury rental environment that is uniquely and deliberately designed to dazzle, comfort and connect them.
