Modernist Park Avenue Apartment

The goal of the renovation, therefore, was not to restore the apartment to its original grandeur, but to create a new space which would evoke the spirit of that grandeur in a modern setting. This black, white and gold color scheme is carried throughout the apartment. One enters into a spacious foyer with the formal dining room just beyond. The entry foyer and dining room were placed on axis with each other, separated by a screen wall with glass block which gives the dining room visual privacy, and yet allows the two spaces to flow together. Both the dining room and the foyer features 3-level ceiling arrangements which generate architectural interest.
