A parchment sheathed salon in the New York townhouse of ophthalmologist and gallery owner Dr Stephen Kelly designed by Geoffrey Bradfield and the late Jay Spectre features a six-panel 1920s lacquered and incised screen by Eileen Gray and a pair of club chairs covered in a geometric patterned Fortuny fabric. ‘La Trinité’, a bronze sculpture by Jan and Joel Martel, was purchased from the estate of Geoffrey Beene. * Photo by @jeffhirschphotography for @newyorksocialdiary Merci @the_london_list for sharing * #stephenkelly #artdeco #modernluxe #modernluxury @geoffreybradfield #jayspectre #1990sdesign #parchmentwalls #eileengray #fortuny #bronzesculpture #janmartel #joelmartel #geoffreybeene #neutralrooms #neutrals #restrainedelegance https://www.instagram.com/p/BsS7nD1lH9j/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14hl09ag5092n

“Good design is forever.” — Van Day Truex I would be infinitely delighted to return here, day after day, until my end. A sense of sophisticated calm, and a curious eye and intellect, informs a Manhattan sitting room designed by Stephen Sills, where classical lines, form and proportion are interpreted in a modern idiom: scored plaster walls inspired by the Frick, across the street; a suite of Jean-Michel Frank furniture - a modern take on elegant Louis XVI lines; a classically-inspired bust atop a modern fluted plinth from the Trocadero in Paris. A subtle nod to Classicism within a cocoon of understated luxury and undeniable comfort. Not just smitten ... I’m a groupy! @stephensills @francoishalard #stephensills #jeanmichelfrank #parchment #parchmentfurniture #classicmodern #classicchic #americanchic #timelessdesign #understatedluxury #restrainedelegance #classicalbust #picassovase #linevitrine #neutralrooms https://www.instagram.com/p/BntNmmaHcJA/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ynznp5tis0ak

Sober luxury crafted by Rémii Tessier for a villa near Miami, Florida. In the main salon Picasso’s Deux Femmes et enfant hangs against straw marquetry paneling a la JM Frank above a custom travertine fireplace designed by Tessier. Ceramics by Kristin McKirdy grace a bronze table by Ado Chale while the bronze and onyx table by Eric Schmitt at right displays “Secret”, marble sculptures by Dimitry Gerrman. The chairs and sofa are Jean Royère.
