TRIBECA AERIE
Three years ago the AD100 Architectural Digest designer Monique Gibson, walked into the terrace of this penthouse apartment in Tribeca and her jaw dropped in amazement. Perfectly centered on New York’s east-west axis, the duplex takes in panoramic views from the East River to the Hudson and, on clear days, sight lines north all the way to Central Park.
It was taken by the apartment’s unique rough-edged glamour, which featured a soulful combination of industrial vintage fixtures, Art Deco furniture, and sumptuous beige upholstery, along with a fearless abundance of glossy black finishes.
The challenge was to translate the feeling of creative urbanity, more naturally suited to an old loft building with exposed brick walls and exposed pipes, to a classically inspired newly constructed high-rise.

EAST VILLAGE ATELIER
Monique Gibson is the queen of creature comforts. Easygoing in effect but exacting in execution, this attention to detail is just a taste of the treatment Gibson, an AD100 Architectural Digest interior designer lavishes on her loyal clients.
There are a few things that the AD100 Architectural Digest designer has held on to through the years, however. Among them is the living room’s pair of Hiroshi Asada paintings, given to her by Elton John. The room’s Asplund chair is the first piece of furniture she ever bought for herself at auction, and a petite Louis XVI antique once served as her first desk chair.

CHARLESTON PENTHOUSE
A well-designed home can be more than just a collection of beautifully furnished rooms. It can, and should, be a framework for a life well lived. Terri Henning, a Charleston businesswoman has called the AD100 Architectural Digest designer Monique to schedule an interview. She needed an environment that would help her to feel both comforted and confident where she could begin again, regroup, and achieve her dreams.
The Charleston Apartment had been gutted; it was a raw open space with concrete floors and steel beams and nothing else. From her taste in sleek automobiles, Monique knows that she can make herself a connoisseur of beautiful furniture.

ISLAND RETREAT
The minute that the AD100 Architectural Digest Designer stepped into the double-height living hall, Monique could tell that the proportions were off. Everything was clean and austere to the point of feeling monastic.
Get The Look: Eden Side Table
Eden Side Table is inspired by the mystic behind the name. This side table represents a part of the tree of knowledge and the tale of the birth of desire. Fully made of polished casted brass, with a delicately engraved top exposing the heart of a golden tree to the very heart of a home.
TRIBECA LOFT
The couple owner of this spacious duplex loft envisions a tranquil environment where they could raise their family. At the same time, they want it to be creative without too much “visual noise” or distraction. With a very specific request for “no color” and at the same time they want their home to feel cozy and textured.
The all-white space took on a new depth with the simple trick of staining the window surrounding a dark shade. However, their two children had a very different ideas of what constitutes domestic bliss. With this in mind, the AD100 Architectural Digest Designer designed the bed to look like a birdhouse and paired it with the sweetest wallpaper with little birds perched on trees.
This modern aviary was in contrast, of course, to the parts of the loft that the kids share with their parents. Furniture and accessories in natural materials like walnut, linen, boiled wool, and cashmere made the neutral space feel grounded. Even here there were playful touches: the minimalist kitchen, where the open shelving is in live-edge reclaimed wood, got a backsplash in chalkboard slate.
Get The Look: Mondrian Sideboard
This modern sideboard features a mahogany structure gently involved by an elegant frame of tempered glass. Composed of a set of drawers and doors with different styles, it exhibits carved details finished in high gloss colored lacquer, mirrors, and cut glass, to sophisticated leather details, topped by sleek brass handles with classic shapes and crystals.
