Photographer Jack Pierson loves old hotels and forgotten movie stars. His apartment of even Interiordesigner Fernando Santangelo therefore subtly arranged furniture and subdued lighting an aura of gently verblassten glamour.
Fernando Santangelo represents "a real Granny aesthetics", the artist Jack Pierson, who is close friends with the Interior originating in Uruguay. He thinks it positively: "In the rooms that Fernando puts up his stamp which he makes the past very present." To set up his apartment in an elegant brownstone from the middle of the 19th century near Washington Square, Pierson Santangelo was an unconventional briefing: the rooms should look like a Park Avenue apartment, which had bequeathed him an old aunt. A joint visit to the historic hotel Pera Palace in Istanbul provided further inspiration and Yves Saint Laurent, apartment in the Paris rue de Babylone, the Pierson on behalf of photographed the New York Times. Santangelo made some structural changes: A closet in the bathroom has been removed to enlarge the room, and the old kitchen ripped out. For the living room, he designed a broad recessed shelf, whose Details access the panelling, and provided the main window of the room with wood slats, to directly before that shut out the sight of Klinkerwand. In upstate New York, he found Dining chairs with woven back, an American Chinoiserie Cabinet 1920s and a legged telephone Cabinet. A pair of plastic chair he had with a seventies substance related, and the seat of a delicate iron chair was formed from an old Leopard fur coat. Dining table, sofa and Coffeetable were made to measure. For the walls of the living room, Santangelo chose a pale blue-grey; the other rooms he held steamed in particular the bedroom and the corridor, he auskleidete with an exquisite block print wallpaper of Mauny until dark. "If everything is white, there is no longer a secret, nothing is more highlighted, and it comes not to rest"
