Interiors: Manhattan Townhouse by Delphine Krakoff

Jul 30

From the moment I saw this townhouse designed by Delphine Krakoff, I knew it should have a home here on Sukio. As I continue to teeter between the clean lines of modern architecture and the ornate glitz of glamorous décor, this place provides a temporary fix. The dining area’s mirrored table and crystal chandelier alone are enough to make me yell "Right on!" Combine that with more fab furniture and playful artistic touches for the perfect modern, yet glamorous, family home.

As mentioned, I simply love the dining area (above left). In one spectacular moment, Delphine mixes crystal, mirror, marble, and Lucite for the win!

Two extra whimsical spaces include a child’s bedroom and guest bath. The former would be a dream for any little girl—from the palette to the Fornasetti butterfly desk to the zebra rug. Equally thoughtful, the guest bath’s curvaceous lines are covered in Bisazza tiles. What can I say but… "Cool."
