When overhauling an 1830 townhouse in New York\u2019s West Village<\/a>, Ashe Leandro<\/a> crowned the five-story structure with a wellness studio that includes a Swedish sauna.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the rest of the home masterfully mingles edgy art, bold colors, sumptuous furnishings and historic architectural elements, the top floor, with its blond-wood cladding and cutout shutters, looks more like a Swiss chalet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis house came to us with a quirky layout, and while we fixed that, we still wanted to lean into the quirk,\u201d says firm cofounder Ariel Ashe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bringing a modern energy to the calm space are iconic mid-century designs: a towering Akari light sculpture<\/a> by Isamu Noguchi<\/a>,  a Rudder table<\/a>, also by Noguchi, and the Vico Magistretti<\/a> for Cassina<\/a> Carimate chairs<\/a> surrounding it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTownhouses are fun because they are their own little worlds,\u201d Ashe says. And this compact retreat is a world within a world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Charles & Co.<\/a> delineated the dining nook of a Chicago townhome\u2019s kitchen through a graphic flooring change \u2014 hardwood yielding to black-and-white tile. Deep-green paint covers the frame of the banquette and the board-lined ceiling, further defining the cozy corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rupert Bevan<\/a> crafted the tulip-like table, which is paired with a custom banquette topped by a cushion in Rose Tarlow<\/a> velvet and pillows in Zak + Fox<\/a> fabrics. Hanging above is a three-armed Arrow pendant by Apparatus<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTownhouses are such a joy to work with because they have this incredible sense of history and intimacy,\u201d says Vicky Charles. \u201cEvery floor, every staircase tells a story \u2014 and the challenge, really, is to honor that narrative while creating spaces that feel genuinely livable and current.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In an 1880s Victorian townhouse in San Francisco\u2019s Pacific Heights<\/a> neighborhood, Jennifer Vaughn Miller<\/a> didn\u2019t let the living room\u2019s slender proportions stop her from creating a grand interior, complete with piano, upgraded fireplace, contemporary brass-and-black chandeliers and large paintings from the residents\u2019 collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The homeowners \u2014 repeat clients \u2014 had moved out west to be closer to their grandchildren, trading their horizontal Madison Avenue apartment for this multilevel house with high ceilings, ornate moldings and tall windows affording views of the Golden Gate Bridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe living room was designed to allow light to flow through the long, narrow space. Given that townhomes are often linear in plan, showcasing furnishings with interesting silhouettes that allow one to circulate easily throughout the space was paramount,\u201d Vaughn Miller explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe room features an ebonized secretary cabinet from Laserow Antiques<\/a>, as well as many iconic vintage pieces from 1stDibs, including the Josef Hoffmann<\/a> chair, whose matching brothers and sisters live upstairs,\u201d she adds. In the foreground, a custom sofa upholstered in Schumacher<\/a>\u2019s Tigre Blanc fabric faces a vintage Kaare Klint<\/a> piece in its original leather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cCohesion is the utmost goal in my designs,\u201d Vaughn Miller says. \u201cTownhouses allow curations to be perceived often in one breath. I appreciate this aspect.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the debut project for her eponymous firm, a three-story townhouse built in 1872<\/a> and protected by the Historic Savannah Foundation, designer Ashton Taylor<\/a> struck a balance between heritage authenticity and modern ease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The primary suite opens onto a balcony whose doors are now framed in plate glass. Inside, a trad crystal-and-brass chandelier<\/a> glints above a hide rug<\/a>, violin-burst electric guitar<\/a>, Crate & Barrel<\/a> brass drinks table<\/a> and sleek tubular floor lamp<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe settee<\/a> is antique and was my client\u2019s grandmother\u2019s,\u201d Taylor says of the velveteen beauty holding court in the center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI enjoy working with townhomes, especially in historical areas, because the neighborhood atmosphere has been determined for decades,\u201d the designer adds. \u201cA home with such rich history and provenance doesn\u2019t need much.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Designer Emma Beryl Kemper<\/a> had plenty to work with when upgrading the interiors of an 1899 townhouse in Brooklyn\u2019s Park Slope neighborhood<\/a>. The 2,500-square-foot home has three bedrooms, three and a half baths, a wide kitchen and a generous parlor-level living room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis room served two purposes: Because it was off the study, it was used during the day as an additional work space, as well as for entertaining<\/a> at night,\u201d Beryl Kemper says. \u201cWe played up the study aspect with the library ladder<\/a> and added comfortable, flexible seating for different types of parties and events.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The space reads as both library and salon, lined with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves but offering perches for lively conversation in the form of a Montauk sofa<\/a>, Room & Board <\/a>daybed and Z Gallerie<\/a> chair, all arranged atop the clients\u2019 vintage rug<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sunlight floods the room, a rarity in \u200ba\u200b rowhouse of this vintage. \u201cTownhouses are typically dark because they only have windows in the front and the back,\u201d Beryl Kemper says. \u201cBut this home, and this room in particular, actually had wonderful light, which we wanted to play up in the design.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Boston\u2019s Union Wharf, once a 19th-century trading port, interior designer Liz Caan<\/a> and architect Timothy Burke reworked a brick post-and-beam townhouse<\/a> to suit a young family of boaters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The structure was taken down to the studs, then rebuilt to function as efficiently as a sailboat while keeping the warmth of a classic New England residence. \u201cThe townhome has an abundance of cabinetry that, at first glance, appears to be paneling,\u201d Caan says. \u201cWe made every square inch count.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this quiet corner of the living room, subtle finesse resides in the details: brass Visual Comfort<\/a> sconces and picture light, a tripod table by O&G Studio<\/a> and a custom pouf in Zak + Fox fabric<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe kept a neutral palette to not compete with the views and focused on high-quality textural fabrics,\u201d Caan says. \u201cThe client wanted a sophisticated color palette and classic touches without sacrificing her very young family\u2019s casual, water-loving lifestyle.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sophie Ashby<\/a>\u2019s own home \u2014 a former brewer\u2019s house off East London\u2019s Brick Lane that her family of four moved into during the pandemic \u2014 shows her knack for making an eclectic mix of pieces feel both expressive and comfortable. The rooms mingle antique, vintage and contemporary furnishings with lively works of art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ashby is known for her deft use of statement art in her interiors for clients. \u201cIn general, I opt for things that are large scale,\u201d she says<\/a>. In her family\u2019s eat-in kitchen she hung a mural she conceived with wallpaper-maker de Gournay<\/a>, featuring Japanese-style cranes before a golden backdrop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The radiant work presides over a green-marble table, vintage chairs upholstered in Pierre Frey<\/a>\u2019s Le Manach fabric and reclaimed-iroko-wood<\/a> cupboards and shelving, all grounded by the original patinated-brick floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a great space, but the materials are quite dark and heavy, and there\u2019s not much natural light,\u201d the designer notes. \u201cI\u2019ve always loved Japanese screens<\/a>, so I spoke to de Gournay, and we came up with this together. The gold ground of the piece gives the room a wonderful glow.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the renovation of a townhouse in Greenwich Village<\/a>, Elizabeth Roberts<\/a> dove deep into researching the Lower Manhattan neighborhood\u2019s past to understand how the house might have looked in 1839, when it was built. By the time Roberts came to it, little original detail remained, a previous gutting having removed the stoop and left the interior unrecognizable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEssentially, we were starting with a blank canvas,\u201d says the architect<\/a>, whom the New York Times<\/em> once called  \u201cthe titan of the townhouse<\/a>.\u201d The revived building now flows openly between dining and living areas, with new details inspired by the past but not beholden to it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the primary bedroom, a Gianfranco Frattini<\/a> tension-mounted bookshelf mingles with a three-tiered Ingo Maurer<\/a> ceiling light. Near the oversize casement window, a Jorge Zalszupin<\/a> lounge chair congregates with a Nickey Kehoe<\/a> pouf and a 1960s Anvia<\/a> floor lamp, forming the perfect reading spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fresh moldings and baseboards and a black-marble fireplace<\/a> nod to the building\u2019s origins. \u201cI\u2019m a big believer in restoring but not necessarily re-creating,\u201d Roberts explains, \u201cand not creating architecture that is new but looks as if it is 150 years old.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interior designer Lucy Barlow and her architect husband and business partner, Joshua Sear, revamped the interiors of a Georgian townhouse near London\u2019s Hyde Park<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI hope our style is English, that\u2019s quite important to me,\u201d says Barlow, who founded the firm Barlow & Barlow<\/a> with her brother (hence the name) in 2013. \u201cOur clients are mostly in their 30s and 40s. It\u2019s traditional English but with a twist.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The homeowners, a young Swedish and English couple, wished to merge their native design sensibilities in the home\u2019s decor, and Barlow answered with color and craftsmanship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the dining room, deep-blue-painted cabinetry contrasts with the cream-colored curtains, walls and ceiling, as well as the pale wood of the custom De La Espada<\/a> table. Antique Scandinavian chairs<\/a>, sourced from 1stDibs and reupholstered in Schumacher<\/a>\u2019s Iconic Leopard print fabric, bring playfulness to the scheme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou\u2019ve got to be brave,\u201d Barlow says of her sensibility. \u201cEveryone who makes the bold decision is so thrilled by it. On the occasions when clients wimp out, they will say later, \u2018You know what, I wish we\u2019d done that after all.\u2019 \u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a professional chef\u2019s Brooklyn brownstone<\/a>, designer Hadley Wiggins<\/a> turned an entire floor into a kitchen that\u2019s equal parts workhorse and showstopper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Twin islands with butcher-block tops divide the long space, the blue of its storage units echoed in the cabinetry-matching Lacanche range. Brass hardware<\/a> and fixtures glimmer against white tiles and countertops, while a wood-burning oven<\/a> evokes tradition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe aimed for a timeless language and avoided any major kitchen trends,\u201d Wiggins explains. \u201cIt\u2019s just a beautiful, well-built, relatively simple space that relies on texture and color for interest.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The John Devoluy pendant lights<\/a> overhead reinforce the theme of unfussy elegance. \u201cThe space is polished, for sure,\u201d Wiggins says, \u201cbut not precious.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
