HOUSE TOUR | Gilded Art Deco Luxury Penthouse on Upper East Side of NYC
65,526
Published 2022-05-27
This week at @DesignerHomeTours we took a tour of the impressive NYC penthouse with NY based designer Alexander Doherty. The sweeping, soaring views of the NYC skyline and open-spaced floor plan give this home an open, airy, and super luxurious feel to it. Impeccably notable custom finishes include a depressed gold leaf gilded ceiling, oak walls, and custom high-end architectural details. Crushed velvet upholstered walls in the master bedroom give the room a cozy, cocoon-like feeling, mixed with plush, textural linens and accents. The apartment is a true nod to European, modernist, contemporary Art Deco. Extensive use of stone and marble flooring and walls throughout provide a grounded and solid retreat to the homeowners and guests alike. The custom entry foyer, or what Alexander refers to as the "gallery", boasts an unusual geometric inlay marble patterned floor. Industrial rods with hanging custom chains support and uplift the expansive and impressive art collection in the client's home. Floor-to-ceiling paneling and detailed crown moldings give this space a luxurious and highly unique feel to it. Art Deco-inspired furnishings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and the impressive panoramic view are what make this house a truly memorable home.

Such an articulate designer...very sincere, no cliches, speaks in complete sentences. No jargon. And then the home itself is welcoming and warm in spite of being a highrise box. Just love everything!
