Located on New York’s prestigious Fifth Avenue, this project redefines the concept of elevated living, transforming it into a house in the sky and maximizing its connection with the city’s skyline.
The commission arose from the need to inhabit a home at height. A horizontal space open to the skyline views is connected through a central element to the upper floor. The ceiling, designed as a reflective surface, amplifies the sense of vertical space and houses a light fixture that emphasizes the geometry of the central piece of furniture—the true core of the interior design. The space is conceived not as an apartment but as a house in the air, aiming to maximize its relationship with the city’s skyline.
At the same time, this approach enhances the spectacular surrounding views, multiplying their presence within the interior. The main living area is organized around a single piece of furniture, whose circular geometry contrasts with the square plan of the space. This piece integrates the sleeping area with the bed, study and reading zones, as well as a bathtub within its structure. A play of ascending geometries conceals the steps leading to the upper floor of the apartment, subtly resolving the division between the day and night areas of the home.
