Every corner of this private family residence tells a story—one where form and function are not at odds, but in perfect harmony. Thoughtfully conceived and executed with exacting precision, the design is a testament to the idea that beauty need not sacrifice utility. Layer upon layer of printed textiles and richly tactile materials create a sense of movement and warmth, echoing the energy and personality of the family within.

At the heart of the home, the kitchen has been entirely reimagined to embody a quiet, sophisticated luxury. Stone countertops and bespoke millwork speak to artisanal craftsmanship, while an open layout invites connection—between spaces, and more importantly, between people. Tucked just beyond, a cozy breakfast nook gazes out to tranquil views, offering an idyllic setting for morning rituals, shared meals, and the everyday moments that become lasting memories. Together, these elements form more than just a home—they shape a sanctuary, designed for living well and loving deeply.

The formal living room is a study in elevated opulence—luxurious, moody, and undeniably sensual. Cloaked in dark Venetian plaster, the space commands attention while inviting intimacy. At its center, a custom oyster marble coffee table by Bilal Rehman Studio anchors the room with sculptural sophistication, complemented by the soulful presence of a century-old vintage Steinway, its polished surface bearing silent witness to generations of artistry.

A 500-year-old Indian tapestry, meticulously sourced from Sotheby’s, spans the main wall like a piece of living history—its intricate weave offering both texture and narrative. Perched atop the piano, a 1970s MCM brass dancer, sourced through Bilal Rehman Gallery, adds a glint of glamour and movement, completing a space that is as richly layered as it is unforgettable.

Designed with the client’s passion for entertaining in mind, the formal dining room unfolds just beyond the grand foyer, offering a warm, immediate welcome through a rich palette that echoes the home’s overall design language. A vintage Chanel scarf, elegantly custom-framed, brings an unexpected touch of fashion history to the space, serving as art above a sculptural Italian cabinet. At the center, a wood-and-brass dining table anchors the room—not only as a place for gathering, but as a striking statement of form and function, seamlessly blending utility with curated style.

In the powder room, a custom floating vanity designed by Bilal Rehman Studio serves as both centerpiece and sculpture. Carved from richly veined Fantasy Black marble imported from India, it brings a sense of grounded elegance to the compact space. The walls, finished in a deep plum Venetian plaster, shimmer with a jewel-like quality, adding depth and drama. Flanking the vanity, Ralph Lauren sconces cast a warm, flattering glow—an understated nod to classic glamour in a room that feels intimate, curated, and unapologetically bold.

Inspired by the client’s enduring love for the Hamptons, the backyard was envisioned as a true extension of the home’s interior—an outdoor oasis where sophistication meets serenity. Every element, from the palette of sun-washed neutrals to the carefully selected materials, echoes the fashion-forward sensibility woven throughout the residence. Here, luxurious textures and tonal harmony come together to blur the line between indoors and out, crafting a seamless lifestyle experience rooted in elegance and ease.
