Masculine Manhattan Retreat
Eclectic Cloakroom, New York
High above the streets of Manhattan, a mid-century-styled one-bedroom apartment craved a new lease on life. The owner hoped to transform the dated, tired space into a marvelous design mix that would pair Art Deco influences culled from around the world: Imagine a mythical Pan Am Flight 001 that traveled from Idlewild to Miami, London, and Shanghai and round the world, we go. Pass the cocktails, and take lots of photos. Wish your were here! The result is a clubby, transporting bachelor pad that whisks the homeowner—and frequent dinner guests—to far-off lands as well as closer-at-hand, iconic locales such as the Cloud Club, high atop the Chrysler Building. Close your eyes, then open them to cinematic splendor.
