project Felice on Hudson
location Hudson St, NEW YORK CITY
area West Village Italian restaurant and wine bar
YEAR 2023
Nestled among the historic brownstones and winding streets of the West Village, Felice on Hudson was designed as a convivial refuge that feels as though it has always been part of the neighborhood’s storied tapestry. Tannehill Interiors crafted interiors that strike a balance between warmth and quiet sophistication, layering natural materials and classic proportions to evoke comfort and Italian hospitality without pretense. A beautifully curved wooden bar with a travertine top anchors the front of the restaurant, where vintage pendant lights and antique sconces introduce a gentle, inviting glow, while velvet banquettes along the perimeter invite lingering conversation and shared plates.
Beyond the bar, the dining room unfolds as an intimate yet airy setting, touched by the soft illumination of a skylight and the subtle rhythm of texture and finish. Here, design meets the pleasures of everyday hospitality — thoughtful seating that encourages connection, refined materiality that complements seasonal Italian cuisine, and an ambiance that feels both timeless and deeply rooted in place. This Felice location embodies a harmony of relaxed elegance and neighborhood warmth, perfect for leisurely meals, fine wine, and the kind of nights that stretch into early conversations.
