Artful New York Penthouse

This stunning penthouse from Architectural Digest is an amazing home full of beautiful paintings for art lovers. Gorgeous color against a white backdrop, the paintings and scultptures create the feeling of being in an art gallery with the warmth of a modern home. In the entrance is a sculpture garden with an authentic japanese teahouse and an incredible bentwood sculpture. The living room features modern paintings and sculptural furniture while the kitchen is a work of art on its own with bright red laquer cabinets. I just love the lounge that features a Tresserra billiard table with wonderful photography and artwork...really such a perfect mix. This luxurious home really showcases the art within the home but I know that I can take lessons on how to feature the art in my own more humble surroundings to it's best.

I will post more pictures from the book "A Life Less Ordinary" tomorrow!

Enjoy!

I subscribe to Vogue Living Australia. A truly amazing magazine with a really interesting variety of homes. They are always so different and often full of gorgeous details. I like the simplicity of this home...the clean lines, cool floors and the large windows creating an indoor outdoor space.

Just a quick post tonight. Had such a big day today! Hope your week is going great and hope Halloween was fun for the little ones!

Enjoy!

Modern and Simple

Gorgeous modern home that keeps it really simple and clean. This place really sticks to the essentials with no fluff at all. The square lines throughout the apartment are broken with the three round fixtures above the dining room table....so cool....as well as the round tables in the living room. It is really clever how view is shown to its best advantage with furniture placement and the use of warm woods throughout this home keep it from getting too sterile! I do think a little art on the walls would add to the space but I still really like the simple beauty of this space...Here a couple of other modern spaces you might like HERE and HERE..

Enjoy!
