CLIENT'S STories
- Newhouse Associates was called to Greenwich,CT to consult for a client who had purchased a new home. He was a bachelor who had furnished the home and now was looking to complete the interior with art. We spent time looking at the kind of art he was interested in and the spaces, took photographs and then drew up a plan.
Upon returning to New York we immediately visited the artist's studios and set about selecting the appropriate artwork. We also commissioned two paintings, one for each side of the entertainment center; the same size, related in color palette and style but different in design. In all we selected 17 pieces, including paintings and works on paper.
When all of the works of art were ready we returned and set to work. Two days later the living room and dining room were completed except for a sculpture which was ordered for the wall. The bedroom and additional spaces were hung as well and a satisfied collector responded to the new environment with joy. By educating clients about different kinds of art, taking into consideration style, color and medium and then getting their input, it enables us to make decisions about which artists to include and which works of art. Art communicates who you are and what is unique about you. It is a crucial element in completing a space. When a painting or sculpture is added to a house or office, you create a dwelling or space with character and a new dimension of emotion and personality.
