“We approached the design of 35 Hudson Yards with the idea of creating something that would be a visual contrast to the glass towers in the area. We were able to achieve the warmth in this building by using a softly toned and veined limestone quarried in Bavaria, which was selected not only for its beauty, but also its structural features, which make it ideal for the New York climate. We were fortunate to have a design-oriented client such as Related that was most supportive of this approach at 35 Hudson Yards,” said David Childs, Consulting Design Partner at Skidmore, Owings & Merrill.
“For 35 Hudson Yards, our goal was to create a mix of glamorous environments that work for small intimate gatherings as well as elaborate celebrations. Each space was meticulously designed to frame the stunning views of the Hudson River and city skyline and serve as a calming and comfortable oasis. Every room is its own experience and utilizes the finest finishes and materials,” said Tony Ingrao, founder of Ingrao Inc.
Three newly completed model residences in the building are also on display. Designed by Ingrao, Residence 5503 is a 1,892 s/f, two-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom residence. The designer, who is also responsible for the residential interiors lobby and amenities, utilized the residence’s high ceilings and gallery to showcase works of art while utilizing the oversized living room has been designed with a sofa for grand-scale entertaining.
Residence 5502 was designed by Manhattan-based Studio DB. Measuring 2,174 s/f with ceilings up to 10’9” and views over the Hudson River, Studio DB created distinct environments within the luxurious two-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home including a master suite, a library/media room overlooking the Hudson and an eat-in kitchen.
“Our goal was to create a sophisticated and cozy city retreat for a well-traveled, couple,” said Britt Zunino, founding partner of Studio DB. “We imagine our busy clients seeking out Hudson Yards to fulfill their desire to live life to the fullest, with the utmost convenience. A neutral palette of earthy colors, with pops of blue and ochre, mimic the skyline and river views. Thoughtful details and refined finishes add a layer of luxury and warmth to the modern layout and create a sense of intimacy.”
On the 65th floor, Sara Story Design curated Residence 6501, a three-bedroom and 3.5-bathroom home spanning 2,570 s/f on the tower’s southwest corner overlooking the Hudson River. Based in the nearby Starrett-Lehigh Building, Sara Story combined inspiration from downtown loft living with Park Ave. apartments for the interior of the residence, which features a central entry gallery measuring nearly 20 by 10 ft.
“After spending time in the space, I recognized that my inspiration for this home was the color palette of the sky - soft pinks, blues and greys were the perfect complements to the sleek architecture of the space,” said Sara Story, founder of Sara Story Design. “Throughout the home I selected vintage furnishings to give the space depth and history, while designing custom pieces to be sculptural, functional and comfortable.”
