Humbert & Poyet Transform 53 West 53 With an Artful Model Residence
"Perched sky-high across the entire 69th floor, the 5,772-square-foot residence unfurls within a perimeter of floor-to-ceiling glazing punctuated by the tower's prominent diagrid. Uninterrupted views stretch across Central Park, the Hudson and East Rivers, and downtown along Park Avenue."
"For a European, this kind of apartment is almost like a film set, describing the commission as a 'dream' that also posed scintillating creative challenges. We're used to working in historic buildings, so this level of glass and exposure pushed us to reinvent our approach."
"The task at hand became about orchestrating a lavish interior with enough visual punch to hold its own alongside Nouvel's architectural derring-do—and present an artful vision for cosmopolitan living befitting the worldly clientele courted by 53 West 53rd."
The 69th-floor residence at 53 West 53rd Street, designed by Humbert & Poyet, features a sophisticated interior that reflects French decorative arts. The 5,772-square-foot space offers panoramic views of Central Park and the surrounding cityscape. Humbert & Poyet aimed to create a lavish interior that complements the building's architectural design by Jean Nouvel. The project presented unique challenges, pushing the designers to adapt their approach to modern living while maintaining a sense of glamour and artistry.
