The Greek Revival design balanced the apartment's 13-foot ceilings and 12-foot windows with a classical frieze above the door, a nine-foot mahogany bookcase, and Ionic columns and folding shutters based on 19th-century townhouse pattern books; other details, influenced by Adler/Elkins interiors, included a custom scagliola mantelpiece, a cross-hatched terracotta wall glaze, and hand-crafted, faux-grain mahogany doors.
