Constantino Nivolas' Spirit Still Soars in His Springs Home

During a visit to Costantino and Ruth Nivola’s home in 1950, Le Corbusier painted murals in the main living space, which are still intact today.

A vintage rattan chaise sits alongside one of Le Corbusier’s murals in a small room off the kitchen.

Several pieces by Nivola are showcased in the living room, including a wooden sculpture in the corner and a monochromatic oil on canvas cityscape, which share the space with an abstract work by Josef Albers. The coffee table is from Crate & Barrel.

A sand-cast maquette by Nivola hangs above a bookcase in the living room.

The attic, which doubles as an extra bedroom, includes a vintage spindle bed, an Ikea rug, and paintings by Nivola and his artist grandson Adrian.

Ruth’s former jewelry-making studio features a Greece-inspired mural painted by her daughter, Claire.

The guesthouse, once Nivola’s studio, still contains some of his pieces, such as a linoleum-topped coffee table.

Features in the property’s outdoor rooms include a solarium designed by Nivola.

Exterior sculptural pieces include an abstract travertine male figure by Nivola.

A trio of cement “fruit” by Nivola, considered part of his public works, is on view outside the guesthouse.
