An intriguing mix of high specification luxury underpinned by industrial architectural details give at the Perry Street Loft, in NYC, by Banda a strong personal identity. The light, sociable free-flow of the living and entertaining areas are in sharp contrast to the enveloping privacy of the studious work area with its dark, muted tones, whilst the bewitching marble in the principal bathroom makes a bold statement against the pared back lime washed walls and delicate, feminine lighting. The industrial features are softened by the mosiac of different textures that are woven into the design: sheepskin, mohair, velvet, leather, boucle, linen and wool all help to finish the space with a strong sense of artfully constructed cosiness.
