Raad Studio was responsible for the conversion of two apartments into one, creating a mix of prewar details with contemporary design, overlooking the Hudson River in New York. The 2,770 square foot residence is situated in a 1910 landmarked building, where historical details were preserved. The light infused dwelling features soaring ceilings, ornate moldings and refinished hardwood flooring, while integrating a stylish contemporary design. Throughout the home you will notice custom displays to showcase the the homeowner’s extensive art collection. A unique feature to the home is a custom designed steampunk partition wall by the designer’s. The wall creates a separation between the living room and dining room, housing a television cabinet that is open when in use. Rough-hewn, reclaimed wood has been incorporated extensively into the design project, which contrasts nicely with the decorative moldings and polished stone. The bedrooms were designed with a more pared down approach, so as to not detract from the more lavish details in the main living spaces.
White walls contrasts nicely with the more darker material elements of the wood on the flooring, kitchen cabinetry and custom built-ins. The is home is sophisticated and timeless, the definition of a considered home.
