The Chelsea Apartment was an alteration of a 1,500-square-foot Manhattan apartment. The living room and bedroom are connected by a den with floor-to-ceiling pocket doors. Custom bleached walnut casework that extends from the living room to the bedroom is contrasted by a dramatic black-and-white kitchen with blackened oak casework and Calacatta Marble. Tall ceilings, soft white walls, and views of the Empire State Building create a backdrop for modern and luxurious furnishings that are understated and livable.
