New York Spaces is a magazine that celebrates the best of design in New York homes, gardens, and interiors. In its latest edition, the publication featured the newly renovated home of acclaimed artist David Salle, known for his layered, multimedia paintings and bright palette. Working with architect Christian Hubert, the painter transformed two derelict buildings in Brooklyn into an airy live/work space spanning five floors.
Tying the interiors of the concrete, stucco, and zinc building together are select instances of Knoll design. A white Laccio Coffee Table, designed by Marcel Breuer, allows Salle to take in the breezy south terrace, while Florence Knoll furniture and Saarinen Executive Chairs are scattered around the living areas. In the master bedroom, a vintage lounge chair by Jens Risom and a stool by Abel Sorenson, both early designs for Knoll, allow Salle to sit by Testigos, a striking abstract painting by Spanish artist Juan Uslé.
Classic modern furniture intermingles with contemporary painting in the Fort Green residence, creating a home as eclectic and intriguing as Salle's own works of art.
