Rodney Lawrence Presents Artist’s Haven at Brooklyn Heights Designer Showhouse 2019

New York-based interior design firm Rodney Lawrence Inc. blended art and relaxation for their presentation at the Brooklyn Heights Association’s Fall 2019 Brooklyn Heights Designer Showhouse. An upstairs sitting room was transformed into an art collector’s retreat, filled with vibrant abstract artworks and colorful wall coverings.

This space is filled with an eclectic array of conversation-starting art pieces and unexpected modern details – like a spiked table, ink splotched canvases, and mid-century furniture – thanks in part to the firm’s incredible vendor and art gallery partnerships.

To outfit the chic area, the design team worked with Taylor Graham Gallery, Margaret Thatcher Projects, Muriel Guepin Gallery, Sears-Peyton Gallery, Jan Yoors Studio, Trove, Bright, Warp & Weft, Tucker Robbins, Royal Rugs International, Les Ateliers Courbet, Ressource, and more.

The result is a beautifully curated room centered around some truly exceptional art finds.

“The Yellow Tantra 1977 by Jan Yoors is one of the masterpieces highlighted in our space at Brooklyn Heights Designer Showhouse,” Rodney Lawrence Inc. shared on Instagram. “It brings bold shapes and forms together creating a space for rest and inspiration.”
