A Helen Frankenthaler painting casts a golden glow in the living room of an Upper East Side penthouse, where designer David Kleinberg installed custom seating around an Apparatus cocktail table. An Antony Gormley sculpture stands along the opposite wall, and a work by Philip Guston hangs between the windows, overlooking a custom sectional sofa grouped with an Hervé Van der Straeten tiered console and a swirling cocktail table by Maria Pergay. The vintage plaster ceiling lights are from Lerebours Antiques, and the rug is by Mitchell Denburg.

In the entrance hall, Kleinberg collaborated with Orsman Design to create a ceiling lighting installation whose oval shape is mirrored in the limestone and marble-mosaic floor. A Mattia Bonetti console from David Gill Gallery stands opposite a Pat Steir canvas, and a Richard Artschwager painting of Marcel Breuer’s building for the Whitney Museum of American Art hangs in the opening to the hallway beyond.

A light fixture by Rosie Li hovers above a table custom made by Studio Van den Akker in the dining room, where mica paneling Kleinberg commissioned from Mary Kuzma Finishing sheathes the walls. Kuzma’s studio also made parchment doors for the Kleinberg-designed sideboard installed in the niche beneath Felix Agostini sconces from Donghia. The striped painting is by Morris Louis, and the rug is by Edward Fields.

In the family room, Kleinberg used the same Pollack fabric on the armchairs and the walls, which feature a nickel strapping detail that aligns with anigre-and-nickel bookcases; the painting above the custom sofa is by Kenneth Noland, the ceiling fixture is by Atelier Alain Ellouz, the sconces are Charles Paris designs from Donghia, and the rug is by Scott Group Studio.
