Among the cobblestone streets and red brick accents found in downtown Tribeca, Firmdale Hotels’ third New York property, the Warren Street Hotel, sticks out with its striking blue exterior and bright yellow top developed by architecture firm, Stonehill Taylor. The property, which is the sister hotel to Crosby Street in SoHo and The Whitby in Midtown, comes from the hands of British designer and Firmdale founder, Kit Kemp, and her daughters, Minnie and Willow.
Step inside the art-filled Warren Street Hotel
Celebrating the area’s history as a 19th-century textiles hub, the Warren Street Hotel boasts Kemp’s own designed and found fabrics, including her latest collaborations with Christopher Farr Cloth, GP&J Baker and Spode. Also worth pointing out is the standout collection of specially commissioned art, adding an extra layer of eclecticism to the dynamic design atmosphere – from sculptors Tony Cragg and Wendell Castle to Kemp’s range of ‘Tall Trees’ fine bone china tableware for Spode.
Reflecting on the building’s façade, Stonehill Taylor tells Wallpaper*: ‘We took inspiration from Tribeca’s historic iron-tight industrial loft buildings, but gave it a new character with a distinctive bright cerulean framework juxtaposed with the yellow rooftop. The 135-foot-tall structure’s unique use of expansive windows framed by high beams creates the appearance of a 1900s iron-tight design structure.’
