Herringbone hardwood floors, custom millwork, vintage heirlooms and contemporary furnishings create interiors that feel elevated without feeling overdesigned. A rich palette of moss greens, chocolate browns, warm neutrals and dusty rose photographs beautifully throughout every season. Architectural salvage pieces, including a monumental church bell wheel, an early-1900s dining table and artwork by James Harvey, the artist behind Andy Warhol's famed Brillo Box, provide authentic visual character rarely found in residential rental locations.
