8.14.14 | New York, NY | Avenue Road is pleased to announce that it has been selected as a primary furniture resource for the flagship Park Hyatt New York hotel at 153 West 57th Street. Opening in August, Park Hyatt New York will be the ultimate in luxury hospitality with interiors by world-renown Yabu Pushelberg, located within the first 25 floors of One57, a 90-storey building by Pritzker-prize winning architect, Christian de Portzamparc.
 
For nearly 10 years Avenue Road has been a premier resource for bespoke, finely crafted furnishings from North America, Europe, and South America. Founder Stephan Weishaupt has curated a collection of exclusive items in contrapuntal materials that speak to his vision of comfort and beauty and which has attracted a most discerning clientele both at home and when they travel. 

The inspiration for Park Hyatt New York, according to Yabu Pushelberg, was that of a well-appointed New York home, stylish, spirited and considered, capturing the verve of New York itself. Avenue Road’s furnishings go a long way towards establishing the intimately scaled, residential nature of this project. Examples can be seen throughout the interior from the lobby, Spa Nalai and The Back Room at One57, to the guest rooms and suites. Beacon Hill Road seating was developed in tandem with Yabu Pushelberg specifically for Park Hyatt New York’s guest rooms and lobby area, and has since grown into a successful collection in Avenue Road’s standard line. Its tailored back and relaxed seat were the perfect solution for guests seeking a sophisticated, yet cozy experience. Regent Street Mirror, designed for the guest rooms by Yabu Pushelberg  with this project in mind, combines a full length dressing mirror with a waist high shelf for keys and other pocket items--a solution that would also work well at home.

In addition to these custom furnishings, Yabu Pushelberg selected pieces by French interior and product designer, Christophe Delcourt  whose work plays with a variety of materials and who frequently collaborates  with Avenue Road on exclusive furnishings.  In the second floor lobby, OUM and OUK, two colorful ceramic tables are used as accent pieces while lightly scaled IXX coffee table offers a great amount of surface area.  In the restaurant, Allee Maintenent, a table of solid oak down to its flat steel base, would be equally stunning at home. In the pool, the PUL chair puts comfort on equal footing with durability, having to stand up to the wet conditions.  Delcourt also has many lighting fixtures throughout including HOK floor lamp combing a black steel base with neoprene shade and PSP, also of black steel with an Anthracite Oregon shade.

Avenue Road is extremely honored to have been included among such a stellar group of collaborators on this iconic hospitality project by this globally recognized leader of world class luxury hotels.
