Art Deco canvases, similar to the one in the dining area, cover
the folding doors to the den. When closed, they appear as an expansive painting.
“The doors provide a visual and colorful opening,” Angeli says.
 
 
In the foyer, dark gray Venetian-plaster walls
make a striking statement. “The entry is the central element,” Angeli says. “Consequently, the walls are dark in color to oppose the lightness of the adjacent spaces and to set off the decorative objects.”
Adjacent to the foyer, the dining area glows with ivory Venetian-plaster walls. Here, a circular area rug anchors a glass-topped table with a stainless- steel base and soft yellow leather armless chairs. One of the Art Deco-inspired canvases graces the wall.
More canvases with the same Art Deco motif
cover the folding doors between the living area and den. In the living area, sculptural furnishings with stainless-steel supports appear to float in space.

In the den, red leather chairs and an occasional
table form a conversation grouping. “The chairs stand out by their own expressive force in this intimate setting,” Angeli says.
Elements of the painted canvases reappear in the etched-glass doors in the kitchen. Barstools pull up to a table attached to an island.
For the master bedroom, the owner wanted a
serene space with a modern feeling, which Angeli achieved with an all-white palette.
Capturing the élan of his client’s Paris apartment, Angeli says, “The views of the Seine and the Eiffel Tower may have been replaced by those of Miami Beach and the Florida skyline, but both projects
share the same enthusiasm for creative design.”
