New York Apartments - Softcover

It’s impossible to walk the streets of New York and not wonder what’s behind the windows and doors of the city’s panoply of residential buildings. Whether it’s a breathtaking penthouse on Fifth Avenue or an inconspicuous garden apartment in the East Village; an artist’s loft in SoHo or a private house tucked away on a quiet corner—New Yorkers know how to make their spaces both livable and imaginative, both functional and spectacular. New York Apartments takes readers through the doors of forty truly innovative dwellings and into rooms, kitchens, hallways and baths that both inspire and astound. There’s a loft on Wall Street that belies that district’s conservative flavor; a high-tech apartment that brings the future into the present; a “white apartment” that renders color superfluous; and a terrace apartment that feels miles away from its urban setting. Best of all, New York Apartments displays the work and creativity of some of today’s hottest architects and interior designers—artists who know not only how to make four walls come alive, but how to preserve and celebrate the personality of those who live and work within those walls.
