Traditional Residential Interiors

Chelsea Duplex

Zivkovic Connolly Architects designs traditional residential interiors for New York City townhouses, apartments, historic residences, and private homes. Our work brings together classical proportion, architectural detailing, custom millwork, refined materials, and careful construction coordination to create interiors that feel elegant, enduring, and deeply considered. From paneled libraries and formal stair halls to traditional kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, and living rooms, we approach each interior as part of a complete architectural composition, balancing historic character with the needs of contemporary residential life, throughout each residence.

Measure is all.

Traditional residential interiors require a careful understanding of architecture, craft, proportion, and context. In New York City apartments and townhouses, these spaces often involve the restoration or reinterpretation of historic details, the integration of modern building systems, energy conservation, and the design of custom architectural elements that feel natural to the residence. Zivkovic Connolly Architects brings an architect-led approach to traditional interiors, coordinating millwork, lighting, stairs, fireplaces, bathrooms, kitchens, finishes, and construction details into cohesive high-end residential environments.

Our traditional interiors include apartments, townhouses, restored stair halls, paneled rooms, classical bathrooms, formal dining rooms, country house kitchens, and historic residential renovations. Across this work, we focus on the relationship between room sequence, material quality, natural daylighting, craftsmanship, landscaping, and the long-term character of the home.
