Providing views of the Hudson River, this space is the home of an American couple in their late 20s who work in healthcare and technology. The homeowners met Matt McKay, founder of McKay, through a New York City-based gallerist who is also a longtime friend of the interior designer, and they clicked immediately. The couple’s interest to start a collection and learn about contemporary and vintage makers convinced Matt to jump on the project.
“We began with gallery visits in New York and mixed in a few Paris flea market finds to balance the budget,” says Matt. “I love to work this way with clients; for me it develops an interesting narrative.”
Transforming the originally dark and moody bachelor pad into a bright and inviting home was one of the top priorities for the renovation. It didn’t stop there, however. At night, the space needed to be ideal for entertaining and reflect a sultry atmosphere. This contradicting ambiences were achieved through the use of a soft and neutral color palette, combined with textural wall coverings and finishes, as well as curved furnishings.
