In this Open House tour, designer Melanie Morris shows us around one of her recent projects: turning a white box into a cozy apartment in Tribeca full of texture and warmth. Considering this was her the second time working with this client, trust had already been established — which allowed her the freedom to create a welcoming home with maximum design impact. From the entryway with structural artwork by Charlie Patterson and a stunning console that juxtaposes concrete, resin, and brass to the main space with its ample seating via a stain-resistant serpentine sofa (clad in a luxurious cream-colored boucle fabric) that serves as both a statement piece and dining banquette, round table with leather chairs, and unique light fixture by Apparatus Lighting, Melanie found a stylish and functional solution to give each room in this NYC abode — despite its long, narrow dimensions and wall of windows — a sense of comfort, intimacy, and continuity.
Additional points of interest: a living room with a green marble table, modern scones, and an ambrosia-maple credenza with brass hardware that’s situated under the television; a kitchen featuring bar stools reupholstered in an emerald hue; and a primary suite that underwent a complete transformation and now features walls decked out in rich walnut paneling, a built-in dresser/vanity, curved nightstands to soften the hard edges in the space, and a cove in the millwork to wash light across the ceiling.
