Eleven on the River: Big City Luxury Condo Meets the Midwest
Furnishing Your Downtown Highrise Doesn’t Have to be Bland
Eleven Residences is the epitome of luxury living in the heart of downtown Minneapolis. For this stylish couple, it offered living space that fully aligned with their on-the-go lifestyle, given its proximity to the airport and convenient location within walking distance of some of Minneapolis’ finest restaurants.
The vision was clear: to create a modern, exquisitely furnished space to serve as their home base in the Midwest for the next three years. With an eye on versatility, they aimed for a neutral palette that would seamlessly adapt to any future color scheme or interior design. Their primary objective was to curate a collection of furniture and decor that was readily available, an essential consideration given their short-term stay.
Tasked with turning this pristine condo into a haven of sophistication and comfort, Senior Designer Gabby Laboy furnished this space for these discerning clients, effortlessly blending the contemporary aesthetic often found in New York City with the charm of the Midwest.
The Furniture Design Process
The design process started by planning the furniture layout. Because of extended lead times, Gabby needed to ensure everything selected was in stock and ready for immediate shipment. The decision to maintain a neutral color palette aligned with the client’s desire for versatility and streamlined the selection process.

Sculptural pieces significantly enhance the condo’s aesthetic and align closely with the owners’ appreciation for art. In the dining room, an intriguing marble piece is paired with sculptural chairs, perfect for intimate dinners. And in the primary suite, organic shapes and cozy textures make way for an inviting and relaxing space.
Designed for Luxury Living
A neutral palette can often lean bland or boring, but this one exudes comfort, relaxation, and class. Gabby elevated this space through texture, materials, and sculptural selections. Because of this attentiveness, each design element is intentional, balanced, and visually interesting.
