"We wanted to make sure there was a lot of the white wall space and that the details from the building that had always been there could shine through," says Reunion Goods & Services interior designer Laura Flam. Because the foyer is the first thing you see, Laura kept furnishings to a minimum. "We wanted to make sure it was peaceful and restful, not crowded." She paired a sleek stainless-steel bench with a cozy vintage rug in juicy shades. "A small rug goes a long way when it has that much color and life in it."
