Greenpoint Penthouse

The building was already exceptional — designed by Lubrano Ciavarra Architects, recipients of the 2018 AIA Brooklyn Queens Design Award. The interior had to earn its place inside it. 1,520 square feet in Greenpoint. A contemporary architectural framework that demanded precision, not decoration.

Context

Greenpoint, Brooklyn. A 1,520 SF penthouse inside a building designed by Lubrano Ciavarra Architects. The building set a high standard architecturally. The interior had to respond in kind — not compete, not repeat, but match the precision of what surrounds it.

Scope of Work

• Materials, Finishes & Lighting Selection
• FF&E Design, Specification & Procurement
• Art Integration & Placement Strategy
• Construction Administration & Site Oversight

Design Intent

The intent was restraint with precision. Not minimalism for its own sake — but a spatial clarity that allows the art, the light, and the person living there to be the protagonists. Custom millwork was the primary architectural gesture, running floor to ceiling, organizing space and defining zones without walls.

Living Room

The living space features a Roche Bobois Profiles large four-seat sofa upholstered in Cabaret Blue velvet, paired with mid-century modern armchairs in off-white linen. The Eliseo round coffee table — designed by the studio and hand-crafted from reclaimed wood beams — anchors the space.

Kitchen

A minimal custom kitchen with integrated millwork and island. Materials chosen for weight and warmth: walnut, stone, textiles with depth.
