British Chic

A monochromatic color palette of black, white, and gray calms this English pied-a-terre and unifies an eclectic assortment of artwork and furnishings that pays homage to traditional English style while ever-so-slightly upping the funk factor. The Art Deco flat’s classical architecture is complemented by hand-glazed bookcases lined with mother-of-pearl insets, a custom headboard wall that cleverly secrets a host of blemishes, all new lighting, and a sparkling renovated black and white kitchen. Naturally, the highest respect is paid to the comforts of home, even though home is an ocean away.
