Dashing New Jersey Home Embraces Modern Sheen with a Polished New Interior

We love a home that combines the old with the new and does so while creating a charming and cheerful living environment. That is just what you get with this lovely residence in Summit, New Jersey where the classic exterior of the house is draped in a gray and white sheen. Bluish-gray is a trendy choice for home exteriors and combining it with white trims makes it even more beautiful. Step inside and this love for blue, gray and white continues with an open plan living area on the lower level and private spaces on the top floor. A lovely, traditional staircase connects both the floors as Rinaldi Interiors fill each room with a sense of uniqueness.

Every room in the house seems to surprise you with something different and the best among them all is the dining room which has a wallpaper that steals the show instantly. In the white and blue home office it is the Woods Wallpaper by Cole and Son that sets the mood even as the bedrooms stay away from bold pattern and embrace a more tranquil look. In the living area it is white that shapes the backdrop even as a gray accent wall that is turned into a dashing gallery wall. This ingenious design style is continued in bathrooms as well with green floor tiles in one and a monochromatic white look in the other.

  • W72nd Penthouse

    Located in the historic Oliver Cromwell Building, The W72nd penthouse inhabits the top three floors of the historic building in the Upper West Side of Manhattan. With commanding views of Central Park, it’s an awe-inspiring refuge from the frenetic pace of NYC. The clients, a financier and a tech entrepreneur, one from Pakistan and the other a Detroit native, longed for a cozy retreat to counterbalance their busy lifestyle. The fusion of two cultural backgrounds are apparent in the mixtures of textiles and material selections throughout the home. With two growing daughters and a steady stream of houseguests, the project aimed to accommodate their family as well as act as a secluded shelter away from city life. The space is first met with a glimpse of a stunning oak herringbone floors and steel circular staircase that connects all three floors and serves as the central backbone of the space. Facing the staircase is the main floor living and dining area perfectly framed as the home’s first introduction to the space. The area showcases an eclectic art collection and a library for the voracious literary appetite of the homeowners along with objects of curiosity from the client’s travels. Instantly eye-catching is the dining area which features a stunning dining table and leather chairs and flanked by a banquette covered with a custom Suki Cheema textile. Adjacent is a small media room punctuated by a bright red Ligne Roset couch. The tiered floor plates provided a challenge for maximizing space as each level gets increasingly smaller as you go up. The design team began to think like a shipwright to design unexpected built-ins that evoke the feeling of being in a sailboat in the sky. On the second floor, up the oak and steel staircase, is small office, a bedroom with two beds in a unique head-to-toe configuration surrounded by figured maple built-in storage looking to the prominent views of the penthouse’s towering over Manhattan. Also, on the second floor is a bathroom, a small kitchenette, and a gracious balcony that continues to overlook to the busy cityscape below. The open spaces of the circular stairwell continue up to the third-floor feature integrated fire shutters that slide down to create privacy for the whole second floor. Continuing up the stairs is a generous master bedroom and master bath. The master bathroom is class wall to wall in hand- made colored Moroccan tile juxtaposed with modern fixtures and fittings.
