Design house: a modern and sophisticated East Coast residence, designed by Jamie Bush

Colour and curves were the key components to creating this clever family home.

Interior designer, Jamie Bush employed his trademark sophisticated, modern aesthetic to create a home for an active, cosmopolitan family.

THE PROPERTY

Complete with heart-stopping views of Manhattan, Brooklyn, the East River waterfront, and beyond, the interior design of this 3-bedroom home on the 60th floor of One Manhattan Square is inspired by the views, with organic shapes and rich textures that recall the shapes of the New York Harbor and dynamic skyline.

LIVING ROOM

A mix of custom modern furnishings, such as twin curved sofas in the expansive living room, and vintage pieces, like a 1950s Vittorio Dassi bar, result in an elevated, yet organic and comfortable, heart of the home.

DINING ROOM

Each room is an immersive experience that reflects the home's luxurious finishes and atmosphere.

KITCHEN

The rise of the open plan space has had a huge impact on kitchen furniture design. An island doubles as a serving and seating area, and is a cost-effective way of planning a kitchen.
