Actors (and husband and wife) Michael J. Fox and Tracy Pollan share an elegant apartment in New York City that was recently redesigned by designers Brooke Gomez and Mariette Himes Gomez. The home features a soft palette of neutrals gently accented by blue and purple. It has a traditional sensibility with some modern touches that create a unique and sophisticated atmosphere.

The home tour from Architectural Digest shows how they respected the historical architecture of the apartment and enhanced it with a fresh, contemporary appeal. It has a great balance of both and even comes with a few surprises. Enjoy.

A round rug and table promote a great flow through the foyer to the rest of the apartment.

In the living room, creamy accents create a nice contrast against rich wood floors, while other wood tones in the furniture finda  nice middle ground.

Various purple accents compliment the neutrals and add a touch of glamour.

An abstract art piece above the mantle provides interest while letting the stunning mantle shine.

A patterned rug defines the dining space and gives it a nice touch of character.

In a breakfast nook, a built-in bookcase is a surprising feature that creates a great space for eating, studying or conversation.

Vintage tile floors in the kitchen give this white kitchen plenty of charm.

More built-in bookcases flank the doorway leading to a warm study.

The home office is a relaxing place to focus or wind down after a long day.

Beautiful wood details stun in this bathroom, popping against the white walls and marble vanity.

Their daughter’s room is subtle but feminine with a mix of modern and vintage elements.

In another children’s room, pretty patterns and floral accents create a serene atmosphere.

This home tour is an inspiring look at how to create a soft and warm environment for a family in a busy city.

Warm regards,
