The Happy Client: Upper West Side

It was such a pleasure to visit Puja this weekend to see her Upper West Side studio and the progress she was making with her new home! Obviously, the results are wonderful and her apartment is bright and elegant with warm pops of color against a very neutral palette. It's a large studio on a gorgeous, tree-lined street about half a block from Cenrtral Park. Puja's sleeping loft is used as a "guest bedroom" (her parents have already claimed the spot for their next visit) and she hasn't even utilized all of the storage space in the studio! She's decorated the walls with her own paintings, that, like the apartment and like Puja, are warm and spiritual, bright and graceful- all with a wonderful sense of humor.

Embrace the Ladders: Murray Hill and Gramercy

It's a struggle to get clients to look past the construction at the potential of an apartment. My advice, embrace the ladders! Because most people can't see past the work, it's the best time to get a great apartment that will soon be next to new! Take the following for instance:

This is a Murray Hill one bedroom with vaulted ceilings and a renovated kitchen and bathroom...great view from the bedroom and plenty of space. By the way, it's a doorman, elevator pre-war with laundry in the building! For 2,550.00/mo., this really can't be beat.

Beautiful Curves: West Village at Christopher

As you walk into the small foyer of this flawless West Village studio, the impact of it's arched doorways, curvaceous base moldings and vaulted ceilings is immediate. The hardwood floors sparkle, the southern view is amazing- you feel as if you have all of Manhattan at your feet. The quality and finesse had me thinking about BDDW...I think some of the most beautifully designed and perfectly crafted home furnishings today. Visit them in Soho if you haven't already!
