HOUSE TOUR: A Design Duo's Home Is A Case Study In Constraint

In the Manhattan loft of designers Timothy Haynes and Kevin Roberts, 1950s armchairs by Joseph-André Motte, upholstered in a Holland & Sherry fabric, flank a 1960s cocktail table by Tommi Parzinger in the living area; the wicker chairs, which Mathieu Matégot designed for the Casablanca airport, and the brass cocktail table by Gabriela Crespi are all from the 1960s; the 1970s Milo Baughman sofa is covered in a Maharam wool, the painted iron-and-abalone tables are by Tony Duquette, and the ceiling lights are by Verner Panton. The many artworks include a wall sculpture by Donald Judd above the Thassos marble fireplace, a black painting by Rashid Johnson, and a drawing by Thomas Houseago.
