Upper West Side Penthouse
Upper West Side Penthouse, 2023

Euro Oak Custom Color
From the Architect: Perched atop a 1920s brick apartment building on Manhattan's upper west side. This addition and gut renovation for a small family creates a refined, zinc clad rooftop structure with panoramic wraparound terraces. The project combined three existing small apartments into one larger duplex with a central open stair down to living spaces below and floating stairs up to a new upper roof terrace with direct views of Central Park and the Lincoln Center. The central stair volume creates a millwork-clad focal point on the lower level, adding to the extensive concealed storage around the apartment. Soft charcoal gray wood and stone finishes create a serene environment complementing an interior design palette of luxurious textures punctuated with moments of vibrant color.
