A mirror by artist Miguel Rangel hangs over a faux fireplace Kim made with a plaster and plywood frame that she later tiled over. The chairs are vintage and the coffee table is cobbled together from two antique panther end tables finished off with a marble top.

Kim created the marble dining table in collaboration with furniture designer Jona Maaryn, who made the matching chairs. A plaster and steel chandelier, another of Kim's designs, hangs overhead.

The mural in Kim's kitchen, painted to resemble a wallpaper, is replicated again in the painting on top. Kim says she was going for a trompe l'oeil effect, "like a painting on a painting on a painting." The furnishings were sourced secondhand from thrift stores and flea markets.

Kim accidentally spilled on this Hammerhead Sofa Jared designed, but turned the blunder into an art project by painting bleach squiggles all over the reupholstered fabric.

"We were inspired by a vintage piece of furniture and loved the idea of reinterpreting it as bar and vanity combination," Britt says.

A handmade de Gournay mural was installed in the bathroom as a nod to a painting by Charles Baskerville. The painting was installed in a home rented by Marlene Dietrich in the 1930s.
