BUILTIN, a Manhattan architectural practice, transformed a triad of Park Avenue apartments into a unified space suited for a multi-generational family. Key design elements include a unifying floral wallpaper in the foyer, curated furnishings that blend warmth with contemporary style, and a primary bedroom that celebrates pre-war architectural features through strategic design choices like color-blocking. This 2,600-square-foot project exemplifies the complexities and possibilities of modern urban living, showcasing how thoughtful design can bridge separate spaces into a lived-in home.
Here, BUILTIN - the Manhattan-based practice led by Gary Eisner and Terence Kinee - faced a challenge that epitomizes the complexities of contemporary urban living.
A Coordonne floral wallpaper envelops the foyer and central hallway, serving not merely as decoration but as a unifying element that transforms what could have been a utilitarian passage into an immersive experience.
Throughout the space, furnishings from RH, Dmitriy & Co, and Sebastian Herkner were carefully curated to create environments that feel both considered and lived-in.
Rather than concealing these architectural quirks, BUILTIN embraced them through strategic color-blocking, transforming potential awkwardness into intentional design moments.
