In his Greenwich Village, New York, townhouse, fashion designer Marc Jacobs has created a glamorous retreat that’s as sophisticated as his body of work. The result of a collaborative partnership with interior decorators Paul Fortune, John Gachot, and Thad Hayes, the four-story house is a neutral haven that blends designer decor, sumptuous textures, eye-catching antiques, and irreverent art that signal Jacobs’s insouciant personality. “I’m not big on having a particular concept or look. I just want to live with things I genuinely love – great art deco furniture, pieces from the 70s, and contemporary art. But I didn’t want the house to feel like a pristine gallery or a deco stage set – just something smart, sharp, and comfortable,” he says. Seamless surfaces, crisp corners, and streamlined furnishings create a look that is clean, ordered, and free of visual chaos. In the television room, a lacquer cocktail table and custom-made sofa clad in a silk blend create uninterrupted flow. Every room in the home is punctuated with world-class pieces’ worthy of the finest galleries. In the living room, a 1962 painting by Ellsworth Kelly hangs above a custom-made mica mantel and a pair of Giacometti bronze stools. The soothing hues found throughout the home barely deviate from a warm palette of gold, beige, and brown. The master suite gets its only variances from a rose-tinged John Currin painting over the bed. In the foyer, cane-backed Frits Henningsen chairs are paired with a patinated cabinet by Philip and Kelvin LaVerne, a gilded mirror, and a silk rug. “The television room was so perfect that I felt it needed something to disrupt all that order and refinement,” says Jacobs. He did just that with an unexpected giant sculpture of Dopey from Paul McCarthy’s White Snow series.
