The spacious gallery is home to many pieces of the couple’s art collection (and is also where overflow guests are seated when the couple entertains large groups). They found the abstract patterned rug at Rug Art.

Matthew Baird Architects removed the walls separating the kitchen from the living and dining rooms to create a light-filled space with impressive views of Central Park.

The apartment’s herringbone floors were inspired by the apartment in Paris that the family rents annually. Pamela’s favorite piece of art, a stainless steel sheet riddled with bullet holes, by Margaret Evangeline, hangs on the left.

The kitchen, of utmost importance to chef Marc Murphy, features appliances from Miele, while a graphic wallpaper from Eskayel adds a bit of whimsy to the otherwise modern space.

“We [filled] half of it with closets, because, let's be honest, that's really what's important,” Pamela says of building out storage space in the master bedroom. They also installed a projector in lieu of a TV, which, when the couple isn't taking in stunning views of the park, projects onto lowered blackout shades.

“I think if he was going to build his dream place, it would probably be more steel, rebar, concrete, and that sort of thing,” Pamela says of her husband’s design style. The bathroom, with its clean lines and white walls, echoes that inspiration.

Pamela worked with close friend and interior decorator Felicitas Oefelein to help make the couple's disparate design styles cohesive throughout the home. “Pam definitely runs the show when it comes to design,” Marc says. “But we don't really ever disagree about anything major.”

“Their rooms have managed to grow with them,” Pamela says of her children Campbell, 15, and Callen, 12. Callen’s room features wallpaper from Aimee Wilder, shelves from Vitsoe, and a bed from Room & Board.

The prolific chef and his wife created an apartment that’s as inviting as it is intriguing.
