SAN VICENTE WEST VILLAGE

Uniacke’s multifaceted approach reveals itself fully at San Vicente West Village, notably the designer’s first hospitality project this side of the Atlantic.

“Walking into a room by Rose feels like walking into the best version of the home you wish you owned,” says owner Jeff Klein, who first launched the concept seven years ago at San Vicente Bungalows in Los Angeles.

For the West Village outpost, Uniacke has overseen a comprehensive update to a 1908 redbrick building, most recently part of the Jane Hotel but originally lodgings for visiting sailors. It was here, in 1912, that surviving crew and passengers from the Titanic took shelter, attending a memorial on-site after the tragedy.

Notes Uniacke, “This is a place with a colorful history.”
