Dorian Chelsea Residences

Manhattan, NY

The stunning 225 West 17th Street building is located on the southern end of Chelsea in Manhattan, NY, and is in close proximity to the High Line, Chelsea Piers, and Chelsea Market.

This building, created by Rogers Partners, features over 4,000 square feet of Porcelanosa’s On Black porcelain panels in its ventilated façade design. The building’s structure has been in existence since 1912 and has been transformed from its old manufacturing facility to a luxurious residential building with 14 residences that span across 10 floors.

The On Black porcelain panels appear on the building in a staggered pattern and are accented by metal trims. Its rich, dark color also helps 225 West 17th Street stand out on the street amongst the neighboring buildings that surround it.
