suite and the caesar stone of the terrace. Aluminum panels were
jitterbugged and anodized to clad all the surfaces of the private
elevator lobby and a powder room‚ and are used extensively
throughout the apartment for doors‚ ceiling coves‚ and the recessed
bases of the hand-troweled plaster walls. in contrast to the cool restraint
of the public areas‚ the master bathroom is a sybaritic indulgence. A
double layer of translucent slumped glass encloses the shower and
toilet‚ and an oval tub is set into a rounded niche of iridescent glass
tiles. in the powder room‚ an aluminum wall is overlaid with Japanese
plastic lit by concealed fiber optics to create a pixilated pattern.
