A Curated Single Owner Collection With Designer Provenance

Peek inside a home where every room is intentionally composed to flow effortlessly into the next. This Ardsley, NY auction features a residence designed in 2011 by interior designer David Hammond, showcasing a collection of designer furniture and curated home furnishings that perfectly balance timeless style furnishings with contemporary home design.

Nestled in a gracious suburban enclave just north of New York City, the interiors tell a story of elegant interiors, intention, and seamless flow. From the moment you enter, each room connects to the next, not as separate spaces, but as chapters in a well-told tale. The living room opens into the dining area, which leads to an intimate library, and beyond to a serene sitting room. Through careful specifying of finishes, fabrics, and scale, Hammond orchestrates a subtle rhythm from one space to another.

Many of the fine furniture and decorative pieces are acquired at Westport-area showrooms such as Dovecote and Lareoux, chosen not only for their aesthetics but for their ability to age gracefully and serve as quality anchors in the home. Select pieces are upholstered furniture, refreshed in luxurious fabrics that reflect contemporary tastes while maintaining the original design’s integrity.

As the homeowner prepares to downsize, this curated collection of collectible furniture and luxury home décor becomes available through Black Rock Galleries in a single-owner online estate auction. Each lot carries the imprint of a home that is not simply decorated but thoughtfully composed, offering buyers a rare opportunity to acquire furnishings specified and installed as part of a fully realized interior.

Picture the living room in mid-morning light, the cocktail table glinting softly, the sofa fabric warm and refined. Imagine the dining table ready for an elegant gathering, the chairs arranged in anticipation. Think of the etagères, lamps, and display cabinets, all chosen to dialogue with one another in a space layered and thoughtful.

For buyers with an eye for design, this collection offers more than individual items. It provides a chance to bring pieces with provenance into your own home and continue the story. Whether seeking the perfect armchair, a dining ensemble, or a display cabinet with character, each lot carries the whisper of its former life in a beautifully composed home.
