Built in 1916 by renowned architect Emery Roth, this attractive, pre-war building located at 129 East 82nd Street has a distinctive dark brown brick exterior and is home to many exquisite apartments. Together with an amazing design team, we completely upgraded this wonderful, sun-drenched classic six apartment. We renovated the space entirely and then proceeded to upgrade the plumbing and perform extensive rewiring without impacting the elegant pre-existing details such as the beamed ceilings.
The challenge with jewel-box spaces in Manhattan is always to keep the momentum going by properly sequencing the work as tightly and as fully as possible within the narrow limits of the physical space, access, and schedule.
We upgraded every architectural feature throughout this home. The kitchen is especially a unique class of contrasting design elements expertly matched to the client’s taste. Ceramic countertops by Florim over custom-painted base cabinets and solid wood upper cabinets with smoked glass flip-up doors. A floor-to-ceiling pantry wall in smoked corrugated glass panels. Each is illuminated with elegant pendant light fixtures. The primary bath is replete with a new colorful marble mosaic floor by TileBar. High-end, custom millwork, fabricated and installed, is a specialty of ours and this renovation abounds with moldings, French doors, bookshelves, and dramatic custom-curved, built-in closets. The sweeping center fixture from Vertigo and Tom Dixon glass orb sconces of colorful molten glass set the stage for a Breccia Capraia marble-clad fireplace. All new plastering, paint, and wallpaper throughout make this a beautiful home.
