Loft in New York

This house in Harlem has been renovated to connect the past and the present. A steel staircase between the second and the third levels of the dwelling forms a gallery. The palette of the living room is predominated by white, brown and black. The white walls intensify light effects brought about due to huge transparent panels. A modern white sofa neighbours on low wooden tables. Simple black vases filled with bamboo stems and a black table with banquettes look good together. The kitchen is dramatic with a contrast between the tints of oak flooring, bamboo cabinets, birch walls and ceiling, and the tones of grey granite tiles on the floor, a steel staircase and working tops. A children's zone and a penthouse at the gallery level are symmetrical. Opening up onto a terrace, the master bedroom is served with a cloakroom. Besides is a shower. Love this space !

Combining the incompatible

Designer John Loring, the owner of this loft in Hell's Kitchen, a notorious Irish ghetto in New York City, is fond of savouring contrasts and combining the incompatible. In his living room there is cohabiting a couch in English Regency Style, a couple of Ar-Deco chairs and a table from the workshop of Andre Groult, a famous decorator. The pieces are combined by some internal force, courage and visual authenticity. The main engineering systems of the house have been renovated; an open steel staircase finished with cherry-wood has been built. Moulding, door frames, a wardrobe a-la George II Style, mirror alcoves in the bedrooms and Loring's ceramic collection constitute a unique style and conceal imperfections in the building construction.

This is the home of Gigi Sharp and George Gilpin in New York. This is the best interior I've seen so far. So eames, so mid-century. The colours are gorgeous and every single detail is a masterpiece. Look at the eames rocker, the Eva Zeisel ceramics, the ESU, but also the planetariums, the collection of atomic clocks...
