Life on the High Line

With views of the High Line park and Hudson River through double-height windows, this 1,800-square-foot Manhattan duplex loft was a lily in little need of gilding. Its owners, two women with an enviable art collection and a high-spirited dog, told Shamir Shah comfort was a priority. As was practicality: no fussy fabrics or finishes. +view resources +read article

Beneath the living area’s 20-foot ceiling stand a sofa covered in linen and horsehair and a linen-wrapped cocktail table, both custom.

A Steven Klein equine photograph presides over an Arne Jacobsen chair. Flooring is oak.

In the dining and living areas of a duplex loft, chandeliers by Lindsey Adelman and David Weeks accent the art collection, which includes pieces by Keith Haring, Damien Hirst, and Andy Warhol.

In the living area, Italian 1950’s armchairs are punctuated by Christian Liaigre’s end table and floor lamp.

The kitchen’s island stands opposite from custom cabinets of lacquered plywood.

In the stairwell, the oak-latticed wall is fitted with custom parchment sconces.

A custom marble-topped vanity is set against a wall of glass mosaic tile in the master bathroom.

With a Charles and Ray Eames chair nearby, the master suite’s custom bed frame and headboard are covered in wool.
