TriBeCa Apartment
Located in lower Manhattan, this exquisite TriBeCa apartment presents an artistic exploration of balance. It brings together an assortment of elements, which are spatially perceived as being unite, to create a harmonious whole and a deep sense of spatial freedom. With attention to fine details and to creative requests by the owners – art-collectors – the designer was resilient to marginalize beauty and originality.
Taking advantage of physical and visual characteristics, the project presents a unique relationship between an apartment and its environs. Full length windows running along the apartment’s walls provide an exceptional 1800 panoramic view of New York City’s skyline. The generous fenestration opens the house to the surrounding of the city and brings light deep inside the space.
The apartment is oriented and planned in a way that each room has at least one fully glazed wall to capitalize on the dynamic city views, while the interior makes way for the perfect balance with a warm, natural hardwood floor and soothing shades of blue and beige.
The furniture, which complements the architecture, plays a central role within the apartment. Wooden furnishings and contemporary aquatic paintings adorn the entrance corridor. Rectangular furnishings and contemporary works of art add an aesthetic flavor to the polygonal living area – which, as the core of the house, is marked off by matching silvery couch and gray armchairs. The room was further adorned with an ornamental velvet rug and wooden furnishings that blend with the hardwood floor and harmonize with the calming shades of blue and beige. The colors complement the various elements of the space and accentuate the original artwork.
The design is not a slave to supporting walls. The interior provides a free sensation, with floors that are not superimposed by partition walls. A white glass wall masterpiece separates the kitchen from the living area while maximizing space. The kitchen island was divided as to create a long, thin cooking area, which appears to be its own room without being closed off. The cook, therefore, may enter the kitchen from the left or right of the glass partition without having to juggle through doors or gateways. This design strategy is based on an original combination of elements: instead of completely hiding independent parts of the apartment, it creates spacious and illuminated areas with different perspective views in each one. Independent spaces, therefore, do not need to be closed-off by walls or doors. For a family of six, functionality is essential. The designer chose flexible furniture such as the sofa-bed in the office/guest-room and a sliding bed in the second bedroom. Originally the office opened onto the living room but the owners preferred to close-off the space and create an extra room. To widen the second bedroom, maple-wood furniture – a closet, shelves and a built-in desk – were structured.
The home accommodates a progressive lifestyle and leaves no room or place for
unnecessary objects. The functional design and the visually appealing perspectives are combined with luxurious clean and honest materials of matching shades. Glass, wood, furnishings and art-works were all carefully selected to bring out the better of each one, while creating an original strategic combination with the textures, shades and highlights.
