TO THIS !!!!
"Howard Slatkin, an interior designer with rarefied tastes—every inch of his apartment
has been as custom-designed as a couture dress."
"The building is a classic prewar, as were the two apartments he took over, but now, the minute you step off the elevator, you are folded back even further in time, into a world where comfort and elegance reign."
I love his confidence.
No Fear.
Pattern upon pattern!!
Can you appreciate this design job?
I know not many people could see themselves living in this space.
But, do I know any of you who could ??

OMG i adore it -especially that living room -and the kitchen is so cozy!!! I love the vision designers show when they can so utterly transform a space!
ReplyDeleteLovely! I tend more towards an understated look, but I certainly can appreciate all of the talent and work that went into this place. xo
ReplyDeleteI think I'd go dizzy. I can appreciate the fearlessness and the creativity though.
