Perched high above the city, this apartment rooftop is more than just a space with breathtaking views—it’s a peaceful retreat. A lush vertical garden and a charming wooden archway set the tone, while the gentle sound of a water feature adds to the serenity. Stylish seating, including a cozy sectional nestled among greenery, creates an inviting, modern vibe. And when the sun sets, a warm fire table brings people together, making this the ultimate spot to unwind and connect.

This stately townhouse underwent a full renovation from both the DHD Architecture and Interiors team to provide a young family with rooms to grow into. Spaces were updated with contemporary furnishings and refined architectural details, while still honoring the classic, formal elements of the historic home. The expansive outdoor space is framed by the dining area’s floor to ceiling windows and bold window treatment. DHD’s interiors team aimed to transform the room into an inviting and livable space for the family, designing a custom kitchen banquette and using playfully bright, warm color tones. While the master bedroom keeps to a soft, muted palette incorporating deep shades of purples, the children’s rooms are extravagantly fun, complete with fuchsia bedding and oversized Lucite table lamps.
