CHELSEA LOFT: Sleek, Sophisticated, and Stunning overlooking the Hudson River
A Bespoke Manhattan Residence by Mueller Design
Mueller Design was commissioned to bring its signature expertise in architecture, interior design, and build-out solutions to a luxurious Chelsea Loft in the heart of Manhattan. This exclusive residential project was designed within a newly developed 12-story high-rise, where the client had purchased multiple floors to create an expansive private residence. The raw space provided an open canvas for our team to craft a meticulously designed urban retreat tailored to modern luxury living.
Thoughtful Space Planning: A Harmonious Balance of Function & Elegance
With an extensive square footage spanning multiple floors, Mueller Design curated a comprehensive space plan to ensure seamless transitions between functional areas. The residence includes:
A State-of-the-Art Media Room – Designed for immersive entertainment with acoustically optimized interiors.
A Private Home Office – Featuring custom millwork and built-in storage solutions to create an inspiring work environment.
Dedicated Nanny Quarters – A self-sufficient, private living space for live-in assistance.
A Fully Equipped Home Gym – Integrating advanced fitness technology with sleek interior aesthetics.
Bedrooms & Open-Concept Living Spaces – Designed to offer comfort, tranquility, and unparalleled city views.
A Designer Kitchen – Showcasing contemporary finishes and premium appliances.
Expansive Wrap-Around Terrace – Providing panoramic vistas of the iconic Manhattan skyline, designed for both relaxation and entertaining.
Every square foot of the Chelsea Loft was intentionally designed to reflect a luxurious yet functional lifestyle, allowing for both intimate living and grand entertaining.
Art Integration: A Home as a Gallery
The client’s extensive art collection played a pivotal role in shaping the residence’s interior aesthetic. Mueller Design worked closely with the client to carefully curate and place artworks, ensuring each piece was displayed harmoniously within the space. Additionally, many of the art acquisitions were sourced through Mueller Design, further reinforcing the firm’s expertise in creating holistic, art-infused environments.
A Refined Color Palette: The Essence of Sophisticated Tranquility
The residence’s color palette was designed to reflect the subtle, yet dynamic beauty of a Manhattan sunset. A delicate balance of soft yellows and warm taupes was chosen to enhance natural light, creating an inviting and serene atmosphere. This thoughtful interplay of hues contributes to a tranquil yet modern ambiance throughout the home.
Bespoke Lighting & Acoustical Design: Engineered for Comfort & Aesthetics
Lighting plays a crucial role in setting the mood and functionality of a home. For this project, Mueller Design developed a custom lighting plan, incorporating hand-selected Mueller Design Chandeliers to complement each space. Every fixture was meticulously placed to highlight architectural elements, enhance artwork, and provide optimal illumination for various activities.
In addition to lighting, acoustical planning was a key focus. Carefully selected materials and engineering strategies were implemented to ensure superior soundproofing and acoustical balance, enhancing the overall living experience.
The Master Suite: A Sanctuary of Luxury
The Master Bedroom was envisioned as a serene escape from the bustling city. Walls are elegantly wrapped in linen wallpaper, offering a textural depth that enhances the room’s warmth and sophistication. Underfoot, a custom wall-to-wall silk carpet in a matching taupe shade adds an unparalleled level of comfort and refinement, creating a tactile experience that exudes luxury.
The Kitchen: A Fusion of Functionality & Elegance
The kitchen was designed to blend seamlessly with the residence’s overall aesthetic while ensuring maximum functionality. Key features include:
Custom Light Oak Cabinetry – Featuring a subtle grain to maintain an airy, sophisticated feel.
White Quartz Slab Countertops – Offering durability, elegance, and a timeless aesthetic.
Miele Appliances – Premium kitchen technology for superior performance and efficiency.
Every element of the kitchen was selected to enhance usability without compromising on style, making it a central hub for both culinary creativity and social gatherings.

Lush Greenery – Strategically placed plants and foliage to create a sense of natural retreat in the midst of the city.
