At Large: Tribeca Triplex by Colony Consult

Thomas Yang

At Colony, our interior design practice is integral to our business' wellbeing, buoying the gallery when sales are down, and informing everything from curation to customer service. We have grown to understand our gallery clients and fellow interior designers at a deep level only accessed by professional peers.

Working with homeowners who are as fully invested in supporting our community of American independent designers as we are is a privilege. In the design of our recent Tribeca Triplex project, our team focused on curating functional works of art to compose the owner's daily landscape, allowing the space to be at once inspired and suitable for the family's needs. Already avid collectors of Bec Brittain, the homeowners were eager to add more contemporary design from Colony's roster to their collection including the Crescent Lounge by Vonnegut/Kraft and custom runners by Grain. 

A collaboration with Bernheimer Architecture, our Tribeca Loft Triplex project was recently featured in AN Interior with a write up by Kelly Pau and photography by Brooke Holm. Inspired by Bernheimer's material language, Colony looked towards non-rigid geometric patterns and textures to add contemporary warmth to the space.

Passages: Home in the Woods

Madeleine Parsons

HOME IN THE WOODS
Chickasaw poet, Linda Hogan

Oh home in the woods,
I am here as one hungry to eat,
one with no bread
in the garden of trees
in a place where the stone wishes to blossom.
Bullets have gone to sleep
and with effort the water
flows the way it once did.
Here, in winter, there is enough
dry wood for heat
and I enter smiling, forgetting our history.
Can you bring me to the place
where pollen is now the light
and we remember the original song? 
Can you keep me
here? Can you unharm me?

At Large: Introducing Kawabi

Thomas Yang

Between our full roster, busy workload and commitment to our Residency program, it's not often that we have the pleasure of inviting new designers to join the gallery. Upon viewing Kawabi's lighting collection at the inaugural edition of Collectible New York this past September, Jean knew immediately she wanted to share their work through Colony. 

Founded by Irisa and Aaron Kawabi, the studio handcrafts vessels of illumination—lighting fixtures that reflect the idea of spiritual beacons and gateways. The forms presented in the The Souvenir, Legume and Cascade collections draw upon history to create an aesthetic and conceptual connection to rituals, reflecting their symbolic ability to transform the mundane into the sacred.

Spec Sheet: Lido Sofa by Studio Paolo Ferrari

Thomas Yang

The work of designer Paolo Ferrari is at once sculptural and entirely livable. Studio Paolo Ferrari's Lido Sofa is crafted in Toronto where the designer and team remain closely connected to prototyping and production. At Colony, we adore the near neon version that graces our gallery floor, but the Lido's two sizes are also available in COM. 

Firm enough to retain its form from all angles, the singular seat cushion is one to be sunken into. Detailing how its construction relates to Ferrari's design intent, the studio explains; "The Lido Sofa appears to be floating in midair with extra-thick cushions and plush backing. Here the typology of a sofa is broken down into a series of extra soft layers and re-assembled."

Colony Classics: Alabaster Totem

Thomas Yang

The Alabaster Totem 16 showcases the magical translucency of alabaster through a composition of sixteen stacked shapes. Originally conceived by Allied Maker for Colony's group show; Lightness, 2017, the Alabaster Totem has inspired the launch of an entire collection rendered in the same material. In the twelve years since it's founding, principles Lanette and Ryden Rizzo have grown Allied Maker from a garage woodworking practice into their dream design studio. All the while, they've maintained a strong manufacturing backbone and penchant for revealing the beauty of natural materials.

In Detail: Showstopping Stone

Thomas Yang

As far as raw materials go, perhaps none feels more permanent than stone. It is "ingrained with geological and historical memories," the environmentalist and sculptor Andy Goldsworthy has said of the material. Put a palm against any slab and you, too, will feel its coolness as a deep connection to its source. For centuries, designers and artists have been pulled to working in stone for these very reasons. The fact that a material so popular is still able to reveal itself in surprising new forms is a testament to both the strength of contemporary designers and the stone itself.

Named after the Latin translation for modern day Tivoli, the city where Italian Travertine originates, Studio Paolo Ferrari's latest Tibur Collection introduces a monumental sofa and dining table to the Tibur Lounge—originally debuted at Colony in 2021. Each piece celebrates the tradition of stone carving and is available in multiple Travertine finishes: Classico, Titanium, Rosso and Bianco.

Spec Sheet: Shaped Propped Mirror by Phaedo

Thomas Yang

Furniture and design objects from Morgan Spaulding's studio PHAEDO serve to strengthen and balance his sculptural practice. Whether functional or purely ornamental, his work personifies the ambiguous curvatures of ethereal in-betweens: dream-states, receding memories, and thresholds in passing. 

In PHAEDO's mirror series, the restraints of the traditional frame have been removed to create an iterative composition of propped mirrors resting upon a wood and polished brass catch. The version currently displayed in Colony is composed of nine uniquely shaped mirrors held by a walnut and brass rail. Up close, they offer the viewer a pristine reflection. But from a distance, the mirror series fractures the room's interior into a beautiful constellation of images.

Life/Design

Mirror, mirror on the wall, whose the fairest of them all? Vanity gets a bad rap. Here are our favorite picks for those of us unashamed to be working on our reflections.

Secret Weapon Serum

Jean's favorite serum is not for the faint of heart. It costs a fortune, it smells exactly like hotdog water, and it can irritate sensitive skin. Oh, also it goes bad in like two months. But Skinceuticals CE Ferulic Acid is the OG, clinically proven vitamin C serum that protects our skin from free radicals (aka bad shit in the air), boosts the efficacy of sunscreen and brightens discoloration. It's her glow-to secret weapon.

Sunshine Scented body oil

In search of a body oil that straddled the line between crunchy and sophisticated, Madeleine stumbled upon this one from Living Libations. Sea buckthorn and a host of equally earthy oils are scented by a citrusy blend of Palmarosa, Grapefruit, Lavender and Vetiver. Not-so-humbly named "Best Skin Ever," use this alone or mixed into your favorite body lotion.

 

Selvedge Black Overdye Bandana

A bandana has become the signature to Thomas' studio uniform. A tradition in eastern asian carpentry fashion and function, he started donning one for metalworking but eventually the accessory transitioned into a ceremonial divide between studio and office time. So if you see Thomas in the streets and he's wearing a bandana, he's most likely on the way to studio. When he's not wearing one, he'll see you at Colony.
