In This Minimalist, Neutral Apartment, Carefully Curated Artworks Are the "Protagonists" of the Design

Light filled NYC apartment living room furnished with white chairs and walls.

There’s basically nothing to improve upon in this impressive apartment located in Tribeca, the heart of the Big Apple. The 82-story building in which it sits was designed by Robert A.M. Stern Architects, evoking the iconic architecture of 1920s and 1930s New York. Its classic facade features precast concrete panels that look like limestone, combined with metal screens for a contemporary twist.

The sweeping panorama provided by the massive double-height, south-facing windows overlooks the bottom tip of Manhattan and includes the Statue of Liberty as well as both the Hudson and East rivers. The modern home's harmonious interiors with their soft curves, luxurious plaster finishes and neutral color palettes, enhanced by the occasional use of deeper hues for more dramatic contrasts, were created by renowned interior architects Workshop/APD, while the spectacular contemporary artworks that adorn the walls reflect the cohesive yet bold vision of art advisor Barbara Cartategui.
