2801 Turtle Creek Blvd 8W | $5,000,000 | Faisal Halum – Compass

Unit #8W at the Mansion Residences is designed for those who favor the bold. A first look introduces architect Darius Toraby’s concept — 5,302 square feet of Art Deco precision across a grand living room, library, multiple foyers & private terraces. A closer study uncovers the details: brass hardware cast from original molds used at the Paris Opera House, etched glass doors reproduced from Parisian estates, and marble that required three times the typical cutting to achieve perfect book-matching. The living room’s gold-leafed cove ceiling frames a 1920 Salerno French light fixture — the very reason the ceiling exists at that height. In the powder room, a glass mermaid panel commands a space designed entirely around it: black marble floors, silver ceiling, and starburst hardware. The library’s sycamore paneling was selected to complement specific art, its Roman fireplace finished with bronze end plates. Even utilitarian spaces hold intention. details
