Modern & Minimal New York Home With Handcrafted Italian Touches

For this interior design project, we were tasked with designing the interiors with only architectural elevations and framework to guide us. Add to that, the client wanted to line the entire interior with custom-designed lacquer wall panels, fabricated in his home country of Italy and shipped for installation. The result was installation of beautifully detailed wall features with a perfect fit, down to the millimeter.

Custom cabinetry was incorporated into virtually every space, giving maximum storage options while giving the home a minimalist style. All were hand-fabricated in Italy by artisans using premium materials, and time-honored fabrication techniques. To ensure success in this remote design project, drawings were created to extraordinary level of detail.

Minimalism was also given an Italian expression in bathrooms where classic marble makes an elegant yet streamlined statement.

Creating the floating stairs in this contemporary interior design was achieved by using ‘starfire’ glass railing panels that float on the wood treads. Substantial in construction, they hide the heavy the steel necessary to achieve this seemingly delicate railing and overall floating .
