We’re excited to share that one of the most interesting projects we’ve worked on in the last few years was recently featured in the September issue of Architectural Digest. It was the two-story New York City brownstone of London transplant and hairstylist-to-the-fashionable Guido Palau, which we completed with well-known interior designer and architect Robert Passal. The home, as well as the client, were fabulous.
The goal with the project was to create something that felt elegant and modern, without feeling too contrived or “precious.” When Palau left England, he also left behind a design sensibility, wanting to swap out the minimalist style he had across the pond with something more personal, layered and comfortable. A collector, he had amassed art, décor, and a host of beautiful tchotchkes from his trips and travels, which he wanted to put on full display in his new home in New York.
Our role was to help Palau curate his art and mirrors in a way that naturally worked with Passal’s design.
In the living room, we hung multiple pieces of large art, including a Jeff Muhs painting installed above a sofa.
The guest room also features a mix of eye-catching works, including a Hendrik Kerstens portrait above the bed.
A gallery wall was created out of smaller pieces on a terrace.
