Once a 19th century brownstone in the Rittenhouse district of Philadelphia,
this residence maintains the historic façade on exterior but boasts a uniquely
modern interior. Chocolate walls, honey toned cabinetry, exotic wood floors
and sparkly accents collaborate to create a swanky home perfect for cocktail
parties.
A Flos Mod chandelier floats above the dining table, small scale velvet
sofas perfect for city living flank the mirrored entertainment credenza,
faceted crystal lamps catch glittering light, and touches of white and
spots of bright color draw the eye around the great room. In the master
bedroom, a daring black chandelier adds flair and drama, while large scale
graphic floral curtains dress the windows. A tangerine cashmere pillow
and throw top the elegance of the room. The second bedroom, a home office,
is fancifully feminine. The capiz shell chandelier, faux-bois mirror, white
lacquered Parsons desk, and classic Eames office chair add to the glamour.
Chic patterns, classic and modern elements, playful colors, and crisp details
assemble to create this fashionable urban walk-up that is always up for
a soirée.
