A calming respite for a young family in Manhattan’s West Village — paying homage to their historic 1860s brownstone through warm textures, timelessly classic materials, and details that find refinement through the patina of living. Within the 1,600 square foot, three-story brownstone we were guided by European finishings and classic Belgian interiors, finding richness through a balance of natural materiality and embracing a harmonic moodiness.
Immersing ourselves in the brownstone’s gut renovation, we worked closely with the client to cultivate a space that aligned with their vision and lifestyle. Seeking to add intentional texture and invite a calming cohesion, we integrated layers of natural materials, including raw & antique woods, earthy-hued heavy Belgian linens, antique brass detailing, and wall texture from Roman Clay. Special pieces, including antique stone fireplaces, were sourced from Europe to add further dimension. We also explored solutions that paired classic design and mindful functionality—like a custom panel finished in Roman Clay to conceal electronics, offering tasteful solutions without compromising the holistic design.
