“Timeless, elegant, bespoke
Michael Cox
— the language of foley&cox.”
This sumptuous monograph presents the work of foley&cox, a New York-based interior design firm renowned for serene spaces subtly layered with color and texture that create a sense of welcome and comfort. Taking creative cues directly from their clients — their perceptions, preferences, and passions- the designers create unique interiors infused with personal style.
The foley&cox portfolio is diverse, ranging from elegant prewar apartments in Manhattan to retreats in the Hamptons and summer places along the coast of New England and in Europe, and even to a private jet and a yacht that cruises the Mediterranean. What unites these spaces is an overall balance and elegance, infused with luxurious fabrics in subtle tonal variations and a judicious use of highlight color, often in the artwork and accessories. Founder Michael Cox is a master at creating settings for art collections and selecting distinctive vintage pieces that add a sophisticated touch to the rooms.
Twenty-four homes are featured in luxuriant color photographs that capture both the character of the rooms and the meticulous layering of color and texture that underlies the overall effect.
As Luxe Interiors + Design editor-in-chief Pamela Jaccarino notes in her foreword to the book, “Michael Cox has spent the last twenty years creating a body of work that is tailored, stylish, and enduring. The rooms are fresh, never fusty. The art pops, the furnishings beckon, and the spirit of the home emerges.”
