In this 1867 city home, the studio transformed the main living and dining areas of this historic home into a welcoming and functional space, perfectly suited for a modern family. Respecting the home's original architectural charm, the design integrates contemporary furnishings while maintaining the character of the old-school structure. Coordinating with clean white walls, the expansive area rug ties together the open-plan layout, connecting the dining and sitting areas.
In the dining room, directly adjacent to the kitchen, mid-century modern touches such as a walnut and marble console, a sleek dining table, and leather-seat chairs are anchored by the original marble fireplace - delineating the dining from living spaces. At the opposite end, a custom curved sofa mirrors the curvature of the brownstone’s bow-front window. Upholstered in a durable hunter green fabric, the sofa combines beauty and practicality, perfect for a family of five. Additional mid-century pieces, like a Saarinen table and a reupholstered Womb chair in off-white boucle, further the mid-century vibes.
Throughout the project, every material and fabric was carefully selected for its durability, ensuring that the home is both visually appealing and family-friendly. The space was finished with carefully curated accent pillows, decor, and fine art, creating a refined yet livable environment.
