I had gotten off white for a while, but this gorgeous NYC loft reminds me why interiors in white will always be a favorite.
The bookcase is the first thing you see when walking in to the loft. It’s 12 ft. long and constructed of solid reclaimed wood.
What great windows! I’m so jealous!
dreamy. That rug must feel so good under foot when you wake up int the morning.
Could you live here?

I know I post a lot of bedrooms, but being that I spend no less than 9 hrs a night in mine, the bedroom comes first in my home. Also, it’s Monday, and if I could, I’d spend half the day in mine…

A reader requested a post on artist lofts – live/work spaces way back in October. Shamefully, I’m just getting to that now. There are so many great examples out there that I’m going to have to save some for future posts.
Here are some good examples of real spaces. Even if you don’t have a loft, maybe you can still find some inspiration.
Great dining/kitchen area!
The above is from a loft in Williamsburg, Brooklyn – an artsy neighborhood I lived in for a year back in 2006/2007.

The above is an artist’s loft you can rent for getaways.

Even with the exposed brick wall and factory-style windows, homey elements like the houseplants, pictures, and rug make the space more than liveable.
I’m not a fan of cowhide rugs or of bull fighting, but this bedroom is a good example of how loft dwellers can make an industrial space cozier- notice the room divider on the left
This is the area of the loft carved out to be office space.
The loft above is actually for sale in Pawtucket, RI.

love the windows!

I really like the look of lofts but I don’t know if I’d be happy living in one as I tend to like small, cozy spaces and being able to shut myself in a room alone. How about you have you lived in a loft, did you like it? If not, do you think you’d like loft living?
I was really flattered when Marcela of Deco and Design asked me for a little house tour. Unfortunately since I am currently “without house,” I had to send her photos from a very cute studio apartment I lived in a couple of years ago. It was on the ground floor of a brownstone in the Brooklyn neighborhood of Park Slope. I was even lucky enough to have my own little backyard. When I signed the lease on this apartment is when I really started to get interested in interior design. I had no idea how to decorate a studio and finally didn’t have any roommates and could decorate how I wanted. Most of my furnishings are hand-me-down or cheap finds, as my entire budget went to rent on the place. So, really, this apartment was my first stab at decorating.

The apartment had a lot of charming little built-ins, like the pantry above – and the desk and shelves below
The apartment did have a separate eat-in kitchen, which was really nice.
I was always changing things around as you can tell
This is the cooking area. The counter had been covered in a hideous, old, stained yellow laminate, so I went and bought some cheap textured drawer liner and resurfaced the counter for less than $14. It help up surprisingly well. No air bubbles or leaking into the seams or anything.
A non-working fireplace in my living room/bedroom.
I loved the shutters, hardwood floors, and tin ceiling.
Sorry another blurry shot – this cupboard was also built-in.
So, I know it’s not much, but I love looking back to it!
