The kitchen cabinets are custom-made from 100-year-old wood purchased at Sliverado Salvage. There’s a breakfast nook and a nine-foot island finished in Tadelakt, a waterproof plaster often used in Moroccan architecture, creating a communal and open space that flows into the living room.

A deep burgundy upholstered bed with a lime textured finished wall in beige tone sits facing the balcony. Veneer backdrops adds to the rich tones of the bed and wall. Play of curvatures in small places add up to the effect of elegance in the entire space. A day couch from Hanuzzi in wood and fabric is placed in front of the window. Décor is not overdone to keep in line with the low maintenance approach.

“Admittedly, I’m really excited about the green room,” says McKinley. “This living room is bold and fresh in a way that isn’t overpowering. I feel like its aesthetic further nurtures the space’s contemporary charm. We were proud to work with Domingue on the finish, which is all lime-based – the depth and texture they are able to capture is truly unparalleled!”

On the parlor level, the pigmented plaster walls eschew the finish of paint. A modest reveal between the ceiling plane and the walls ingeniously accommodates a concealed picture rail that runs the perimeter of the room. The 1968 painting above the sofa is by op-artist Julian Stanczak.
