A CONTEMPORARY APARTMENT WITH A 20'S HISTORY THAT CANNOT BE REPLACED
"Though it hadn’t been touched much for two generations, it held a lot of emotion.” Said Jeremiah Brent, about the apartment in Manhattan that had been a Latin American family’s anchor for decades. Everybody knew that the Park Avenue property had to be renovated when it recently passed into another generation’s hands. “It couldn’t lose any of its spirits, but we had to bring in light and more contemporary elements,” the interior designer explains.
Located in a 1920s building on the city’s Upper East Side, the 2,600-square-foot flat is “so beautiful and grand and has such great soul,” Brent observes. Of the uncle and aunt who have now become close Brent friends: “He is practical and logistical but has this funny art eye that gravitates to bold, emotional pieces. She’s as chic as it gets, seriously smart, and likes things that are refined, soft, and luxurious.”, said the designer, Jeremiah Brent. So the apartment is a mix of those points of view.
Let's find out how to achieve this look.
