"Coming from our home in Miami, we appreciated that it was filled with natural light. You can be down on the street and it seems like there's no sunshine. Then you go up into our home and all of a sudden it's a beautiful day."
"There's a very delicate curve to the hood over the fireplace. These little details add the slightest element of movement, so we just started layering and playing up the curves. We have a large round rug that's approximately 20 by 20 feet, and a curved sofa by Pierre Augustin Rose, which is almost five metres long."
"The architecture is the work of Herzog & de Meuron, who designed both the structure and the interiors - a rarity on projects of this scale. The apartment sits on the 47th floor of a building inspired by modernist villas. The design consists of stacked glass cubes, which cantilever to form a structure similar to a Jenga tower."
Nacho Polo and Robert Onuska reside in a distinctive Herzog & de Meuron-designed building in Tribeca, New York, where they operate Studiotwentyseven gallery opposite their home. The 47th-floor apartment features a modernist design inspired by villas, with stacked glass cubes that cantilever like a Jenga tower, creating large terraces with Hudson River views. The architects designed both the building structure and interiors, introducing soft curves into the geometric forms, including curved details around the fireplace and a five-meter curved sofa. The apartment floods with natural light, contrasting sharply with street-level darkness. After relocating in late 2019, the couple began collecting art for the first time, working with an advisor to curate their collection.
