In the living room, guests gather on a matching ebony sofa and daybed from Hudson and a pair of Jorge Zalszupin lounge chairs. An Yves Klein coffee table—filled with the artist’s signature International Klein Blue pigment— provides a vivid burst amid otherwise organic tones. The walnut-and-bronze cabinetry is a custom design.
Located on a sloped wooded site, the 7,500-square-foot Bridge House encompasses two stories and a finished basement. The multigenerational abode by Höweler + Yoon Architecture embraces its sylvan setting through floor-to-ceiling glass walls and generously sized terraces on the first and second stories.
Gesner (shown here in the circular main house) welcomed us in to explore his home. He told us how he believes round design is one of the easiest and best ways to build so that you don’t lose any space without sacrificing a strong structure. “Everything else in the universe is round and exists in cycles—plants, the sun, the way the planets orbit,” he continued.
