Residential: Beautiful penthouse, Huys 404 Park Avenue, NYC by Piet Boon


Infusion of comfortable luxury. 
Beautiful designed penthouse, Huys 404 Park Avenue South, NYC by Dutch interior designer Piet Boon. Located in the heart of the vibrant NoMad district, Huys 404 is a neo-classical property dating from 1917, set amongst fin-de-siècle office buildings and warehouses and neighboring stately mansions from New York's Gilded Age. Piet Boon was invited by award-winning Dutch property developers Kroonenberg Groep to create the total concept for the conversion from commercial offices to 58 luxurious and elegantly detailed condominiums with ground-floor retail space. Love all the beautiful detailing, like the white walls with the black window frames, lots of light in the living room, the mustard colored Kekke dining chairs that add warmth to the minimalist space. And also the interesting lighting design by Dutch sculptural lighting designer Frederik Molenschot (Studio Molen). For additional information, see the enclosed links below. This post is a repost of my blog from 21-11-2015. Be Inspired .......

Metropolitan Luxury: Opulent interior design by Dutch designer Eric Kuster


Love the chic and sophisticated interiorstyle of Eric Kuster. Eric Kuster is an international interior designer, known through his stylish stand-alone interiors. The ability to strike a perfect balance between classic and modern has put Eric Kuster’s name on the international interior design map for almost two decades. His collections of fabrics, furniture and stand alone interiors in both his native Holland and more recently, further afield in the Mediterranean, Middle East, Africa and Asia, all express an attitude for ‘Metropolitan Luxury’. The fitting label for his iconic brand encompassing a style that at once embraces glamour, comfort and sophistication.

While surfing this afternoon I saw this beautiful chair from the Dutch company Eric Kuster Metropolitan Luxury. It's the Ritz Slipper chair. Its low-slung design invites you to slip effortlessly into its comforting form. Without armrests, you’re able to assume practically any position you desire. Soft cushioning and a plethora of finishes make Ritz a stunning addition to any space. I am completely in love with this design as well as the chosen fabric and color!
