Lenox Hill - Smiros and Smiros Architects

Living room in a renovated Lenox Hill Manhattan apartment with layered seating, coffered ceiling, paneled pocket doors, and a Montse Valdés face painting

Lenox Hill

— Manhattan —

Created for longstanding clients whose homes we have shaped across several chapters of family life, this Lenox Hill pied-à-terre began as a full-gut renovation of an existing apartment. The new interiors translate their established affinity for classical proportion and fine craftsmanship into a quieter, more contemporary register suited to life in the city. Tailored millwork, softly articulated moldings, sculptural lighting, and a restrained palette lend warmth and definition without excess. The result is elegant yet intimate: a polished Manhattan retreat that feels both entirely renewed and unmistakably personal.

Light-filled renovated Manhattan apartment living room with steel-look French doors, built-in shelves, herringbone wood floor, and layered seating — The living room of this Lenox Hill apartment renovation uses steel-look doors, soft window treatments, built-in shelving, and herringbone wood flooring to create a composed urban interior. The room accommodates both quiet daily use and the display of a personal art and object collection.

This living room detail highlights the renovation's attention to proportion, craft, and material refinement. A white marble fireplace surround with crisp molding and a Greek key motif gives the Lenox Hill interior a measured classical note without overwhelming the room.

Seen through an arched mirror, the dining area becomes part of a layered sequence between living, dining, and art display within this luxury Lenox Hill residence. The sculptural chandelier, dark wood table, and face painting by Montse Valdés give the apartment a quiet dialogue between architecture and collection.

Renovated Lenox Hill apartment kitchen with white cabinetry, marble backsplash, pendant lights, dining table, and precious stone onyx island — A precious stone onyx island anchors the kitchen in this luxury apartment renovation, functioning as both work surface and sculptural focal point. White cabinetry, marble backsplash, glass pendants, and an adjacent dining area keep the kitchen visually open within the Manhattan apartment.

The guest bath uses black marble, reflective metal trim, textured wall covering, and slender sconces to give a compact room architectural depth. The design brings richness and precision to a smaller Lenox Hill apartment interior.
