Pink Palace
This duplex apartment is located in a typical brownstone in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn.
We created a very personal interior for a wonderful client, an art collecting entrepreneur.
Marilyn Minter's 'Fat Lip' above the mantel started the project, as it was the piece the client had selected for this prominent location.
From there, we worked true to our client-centric approach, listening to the client's wishes.
Exposed brick walls remained just that, painted white.
The plaster walls were the considered for wallpaper.
Marilyn Minter's 'Goldkicker' mural was installed opposite her 'Fat Lip' and the entry door to the apartment was integrated in it via a custom gold leather and studded upholstered door.
We placed the Dining area within the bay window, created a custom banquette and found a wonderful and whimsical vintage Italian terracotta polychromed fruit basket as the base for a glass-topped dining table.
Nearby is a robot bar by Loxley Studio.
Art by Croydon Cowansage, Bianca Fields and others is thoughtfully installed throughout and we were particularly thrilled to commission Diego Cibelli for a site-specific piece, a white porcelain ceiling installation to remind in a modern way what likely would have been in place when the brownstone functioned as a family home and this was the parlor floor - an elaborate plaster crown molding.... the center of the ceiling features a custom Murano glass pink sunflower chandelier...
The Kitchen received a pink hue, the Powder Bath a 'Pin-up Lips' wallpaper with matching fabric.
On the same floor is also the Principal Bedroom with a Voutsa wallpaper and custom matching fabric on the windows. The painting is by Scout Zabinski, lamps by Christopher Spitzmiller and custom embroidered 'Starfish-Chain' shams from a capsule collection Harry designed for Holland House.
The downstairs Media Lounge features a mural by Artgroove depicting scenes from a favorite forest the client spend much time in, light fixture by Woka Lamps Vienna...
