For our design of this elegant, sun-filled limestone mansion every detail was painstakingly considered. Adnet inspired metalwork, gilt-edged plaster ceiling details and a unique commissioned bas-relief are just a few of the numerous bespoke designs and details to be found throughout the house.
Every room reflects the sunny personality of the owners. Each space a combination of elegance and ease. For this multi-year project we enlisted a team of artisans and craftspeople who meticulously produced dozens of custom construction and decorative details; from the sky-lit below ground indoor pool, to the double-storied sitting room on the top floor, the result is a house unmatched in its commitment to craftsmanship and accommodation for the needs and desires of an active family.

William McIntosh Design was enlisted to provide a complete architectural and landscaping renovation of a n 1980’s Mediterranean-style house into a handsome Italian Renaissance Revival home.
The smooth stucco exterior trimmed in lagos azul marble suggests the tailored use of materials throughout. From the wood planked ceiling in the double height entry to the plaster interior walls , a repeating palette of strong natural materials provides a quiet yet distinct background that unifies the spaces. Raising the roofline 30” allowed for first floor ceiling heights to rise a full full twelve and a half feet . Furnishings were selected for quality, style, and comfort. The Bar-Lounge Room adjoining the main Living Space offers a variety of seating and conversational arrangements, is a favorite place to get together for family and friends.

William McIntosh Design has reimagined this extraordinary 1920’s manor house for modern living with an exceptional art collection and world class furnishings.
From the moment you step off the elevator you know you have entered a different realm. 432 Park Avenue is home to some of the most rarified real estate on the planet.
William McIntosh Design was tasked to bring this sky high plateau down to earth for a sophisticated family.
Glamorous and urbane yet livable, how to bring these two seemingly disparate desires together. We saw the solution in allowing the scale of the spaces coupled with chic, bespoke and collectable furnishings to provide the glamour, and the use of a relaxed, comfortable color and materials palate to make it livable. The result is a bright, comfortable, elegant space imbued with a sense of New York Penthouse glamour.

The Beaux-Arts style architecture of this home inspired us to design the interiors with the feel of a Parisian apartment. We developed a collection of period art deco furnishings coupled with our own custom contemporary designs set against classically scaled rooms, traditional moldings, architectural paneling, and elegant fabric lined walls. The clients collection of art includes Murakami, Richard Serra, Jeff Koons, Donald Baecheler and Alex Katz.

The program for this smart one bedroom apartment on New York’s Upper East Side was to make it exciting and elegant while accommodating large numbers of family and friends. Overlooking the Frick Museum and with a view to nearby Central Park the apartment already had a great address. The interior, however, was conventional and gloomy. We made our statement right from the rosewood paneled front door which opens onto a knockout graphic entrance gallery. A spacious and elegant living room is adjacent to a silk damask paneled dining room and the master bedroom is a sunny and serene retreat.

I love the Baroque styling of this large, comfortable house. The beamed ceilings, the heavy wood doors with nailheads , and the English Bluestone flooring are rich and elegant while at the same time relaxed and strong. We designed the upholstery to be formal yet comfortable. The fabrics are dense and flat; wools and heavy linens. The Dining Room is brown lacquer and bronze mirror. The Master Bedroom features a custom hand formed, English Arts and Crafts inspired plaster fireplace and a polished nickel four poster bed.
