Rock & Roll in the City

Rock & Roll in the City

This downtown Portsmouth condominium embraces a sophisticated contemporary aesthetic that balances urban luxury with personal expression. These home owners were ready to leave the suburbs and let down their hair in the city! They wished for an open plan with fun expressive colors and materials; and plenty of seating for entertaining party guest. Expansive floor-to-ceiling windows flood the open-concept living spaces with natural light while framing views of the city beyond. Rich textures and bold accent colors create visual interest throughout, from the dramatic teal-and-gold curved accent wall in the dining room to the striking plum velvet seating in the music room. A palette of soft neutrals provides a calm foundation, layered with colorful tailored upholstery, artistic patterns, and accessories that reflect the homeowners’ personalities. A mix of materials ranging from wood, metal, glass and acrylic add interest to the rooms. The result is a refined yet welcoming environment that seamlessly blends comfort, entertainment, and contemporary design within a vibrant city setting.
