This Manhattan residence underwent a complete gut renovation for a client seeking a soft-minimal interior rooted in wellness and understated elegance. The goal was to transform the space into a warm, inviting environment—one that prioritized comfort, quiet sophistication, and a chemical-free atmosphere. From the earliest design stages, the renovation focused on healthy materials and sustainable design practices, aligning with the client’s commitment to non-toxic living
Each material was meticulously researched and thoughtfully selected for both its health-conscious properties and its contribution to the overall aesthetic. Natural, untreated woods, organic fibers, and VOC-free finishes formed the foundation of the interior design. Bespoke millwork and custom details were carefully crafted to bring depth and character while maintaining a sense of visual calm. The palette of soft neutral materials and layered textures invites serenity, creating a space that feels timeless yet distinctly modern.
The result is an elegant, contemporary apartment where the use of natural materials enhances the overall sense of balance and comfort.
Throughout the home, bespoke details and restrained design choices reflect a philosophy of intentional living. Every element was tailored to support both physical well-being and visual harmony. The result is a New York City interior that embodies sustainable luxury: a tranquil, enduring space that honors craftsmanship, material integrity, and the power of thoughtful renovation.
