West 70th Street, NYC | Brownstone | Tri-Plex Apartment

With a love of Japanese culture and a garden tri-plex near Central Park, this bachelorette sought a one-of-a-kind home. I designed the award-winning dining room where tables and wall-mounted seating convert from Western height to Eastern seating on the floor. Custom details are everywhere from illuminated shelves to découpaged tables, vintage kimono silkscreens to pillows and bedding I made with reclaimed fabrics, and literary quotes hand-painted on the walls. The crown jewel is the new steam shower bathroom for this cancer survivor, complete with an ofuro-style soaking tub, river rock floor, chromotherapy lights, a waterproof TV and speakers, and hand-painted ceiling tiles whose cherry blossoms symbolize renewal. Organic Spa Magazine featured the bath in a 2-page spread, calling it a “holistic haven for healing”.
