Seth Van Den Bergh DINING ROOM The Drawing Room sought to celebrate the central purpose of dining rooms – a place to come together. In honor of queer artistry, layers of texture, form and influence serve as a representation of the nuance and diversity that permeates all beauty. This room is a call to gather not only at this table, but in all settings of our lives. PHOTOGRAPH BY TIM CREE The Art of the Home – a transformational designer showhouse by aspire design and home – featured the work of top interior designers from around the country. The proceeds from the home benefited the Tunnel to Towers Foundation. The designers transformed this 13,000-square-foot modern farmhouse in Upper Saddle River, New Jersey, into a showcase of envelope-pushing design. The innovative and eclectic spaces were enriched by an expansive and compelling collection of fine art, curated by Donald Christiansen, founder of Chelsea Art Group. The luxuriously appointed home, complete with media room, wine cellar, gallery spaces and expansive rooms for entertaining, also included a beautifully landscaped exterior with a lap pool, sauna and ample seating in the lush grounds. The collaborative effort resulted in a dynamic fusion of art and design – a home that became both exhibition and experience, revealing new moments of discovery at every turn.
