Vintage Finds Meet Modern Sheen Inside Small Chelsea Pied-à-Terre

ByMyProperty Life

If you are a design lover, then it is safe to see that you are already familiar with the specific architectural style and decorating influences that each major city brings along with it. Be it Melbourne, Barcelona, London or San Francisco, every city has a flavor of its own. Leading this pack globally is New York City with its wide range or architectural styles that emanate from its diverse neighborhoods. Today, we delve into Chelsea and take a look at a fabulous ‘pied-a-terre’ that combines some gorgeous vintage finds and antique décor with a vibrant modern backdrop. A Lorla Studio design, the interior feels cheerful, fresh and open with the apartment sporting a neutral backdrop in white.

Step in and the living space greets you with a large couch that is finished in leather along with a classic credenza in wood that is decorated beautifully. The living area, kitchen and dining space are all visually linked with one another and have a common color scheme. Additions like the bright blue chair in the living area, the carpet in the kitchen and plenty of indoor plants add color and bring liveliness to an otherwise strictly contemporary home. The balcony outside with a large sectional and a smart coffee table also becomes a part of the interior.

  • Chilmark House

    Martha’s Vineyard is home to the single largest concentration of our residential work and some of our earliest projects, including the Polly Hill Arboretum. Chilmark House, like many of these commissions, is immersed in the landscape and continually reconnects its inhabitants with the surrounding woods, pools of sunlight and nearby Vineyard Sound. Entire walls and windows are designed to vanish and erase boundaries between indoors and outdoors. We were guided in the earliest phase of the project by the couple’s wish for distinct public and private spaces and the site’s topography. The central public space—the living and dining areas–plus a sitting room in the guest wing, are oriented toward a kind of natural sun-filled well on the house’s south side. Interior load-bearing elliptical columns allow sliding doors and windows to make large openings to the south in the exterior walls. Opposite, on the north side, sliding windows create large gaps in the exterior, connecting the living room and kitchen directly to the woods and waters of the sound. Bedrooms are on the wooded edges, on the east and west sides. A roof deck, terrace and side decks create outdoor living spaces. Shortly after completion of this project, the couple asked us to begin designing a guesthouse nearby as their family continued to grow.
