The interior design of the Modavie Residences (88 Schemerhorn Street), merges contemporary living with a clear nod to American Art Deco. This intent is visible from the outside, where the building's facade reflects the classic vertical lines and geometric forms of the style. Inside, the homage continues with the lobby's bold, checkered floor and luxurious use of materials like marble and brass.
This sophisticated foundation is carried into the individual residences, where the design is reinterpreted for a modern aesthetic. Warm wood finishes provide a comfortable, clean backdrop, while dark accents and streamlined furniture maintain the luxurious feel. The result is a cohesive design that celebrates a rich architectural history while delivering a refined and comfortable urban living experience.
