A rooftop fireplace, almost never seen in Manhattan. “We really wanted to use the outdoors,” even during the winter, says the client. “New York has dry air, not English weather—there’s a blue sky when it’s cold.” The roof also has a hot tub (not shown). The leather chairs and ottoman are from Troy, the silk rug from Tai Ping.
