RESIDENCE 9

Grounded in the feeling of a past life, this apartment – housed within Brooklyn’s first skyscraper – at 9 Dekalb draws old-world inspiration from the Art Deco architecture of its downstairs neighbor, The People’s Bank.

Meticulously thoughtful yet completely at ease, the home’s interior aesthetic presents as the nest of a collector featuring unattributed, early modernist Bauhaus works, a daybed by Gio Ponti, and a custom unit of geometric shelves loosely-inspired by Charlotte Perriand’s Air France lounge circa 1970.
