Chelsea Penthouse

The 3200 SF of interior space, along with the 1300 SF of terrace, in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood, fulfills the owner's desire for a modern design, copious amounts of light, and nearly unlimited views of the mid-town and downtown skylines as well as the Hudson River and beyond. The client asked for a white architectural and interiors palette to create a calming retreat from the hectic nature of NYC life. SPG's interest in diverse materials to add warmth to their particular modernist aesthetic led to this solution, bringing a variety of materials together to create a serene yet textured living environment. The full expanse of windows along the South face of the building and the North and East facing terraces provide a visual link to the city, but the space itself remains a refuge of tranquility and light.
