"Gilles Mendel's Black-and-White New York Apartment\nAt the couple's compact Manhattan high-rise aerie, architect David Mann crafts a luxe setting to complement the stunning views\nFor the Manhattan apartment of Kylie Case and Gilles Mendel, David Mann of MR Architecture + Decor conceived a lush high-contrast scheme.\nIn the living room, painted in Ralph Lauren Pocket Watch White, an artwork by Rodney Dickson hangs above a custom-made sofa clad in a Pollack velvet; the floor lamp is by Arredoluce, and the fox-fur pillows and calfskin rug are by J. Mendel.\nA vintage Poul Kj\u00E6rholm suspended sofa from R 20th Century and a Serge Mouille sconce from Gu\u00E9ridon make the most of the living room's limited space; the cashmere throw is by Pratesi.\nAn artwork by Earl Reiback is installed between the nearly floor-to-ceiling windows, which offer unobstructed northern views of the city.\nIn the dining area, a black-lacquer chandelier hangs above a custom-made marble-top table and vintage J. L. M\u00F8ller chairs from Belkind Bigi with Spinneybeck leather seats; the bronze sculpture at the window is by Leopoldo N\u00F3voa.\nThe kitchen includes a Sicis mosaic-tile backsplash, a Samsung ultrathin LED television, and a Sub-Zero refrigerator with bespoke lacquer panels.\nIn the bedroom, the headboard is made of panels of camel-color cowhide; the linens are by Frette, and the badger-fur throw is by J. Mendel.\nThe spartan all-black bath features a bespoke mirrored medicine cabinet.\nThe vanity is granite, and the black towels are by Calvin Klein Home."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
