Interior Designer’s Guide: What to Style With Pink Marble
Roxanne Robinson
While the original white façade was kept intact, the interior space was stripped down to the essential structural components and left open and airy to maximize exposure to the city’s view below. The double-height ceiling adds to the impact of its interior expanse and the design duo was able to impart a chic sense of unity throughout the home by using uniform raw materials. The focus pink marble appears in a massive support column, extending to an upper-level bedroom-bathroom wall; as well as throughout a sleeping alcove that is ensconced in the chic hue, along with shelving units, kitchen counters, and pool area tiles.
Kitchens can also be great spaces to highlight thoughtful pink marble executions. Case in point is fashion designer Ulla Johnson’s massive kitchen island rendered entirely from pink marble. The designer worked with interior designer Alexis Brown – who also styled her Noho flagship store – to create a modern bobo home that nods to Johnson’s family history. The designer, raised in Manhattan, is the daughter of two archaeologists whose travels to far-flung locales inspired both her fashion and interiors aesthetic.
