Comic book hero

Just a punchy, graphic space.

Frank-spotting

Ah, I totally love this Josef Frank headboard. This is pretty much exactly what I would do with such a fabric, if I had a bedroom. The rest of the room is spare, to give the fabric its due.

Another room in the same home. Great play of textures!

Bed nook

I like how the little half wall defines the bed's space in a larger area.

Monochromatic art

I like how this luxe, formal room is given a dose of irreverence by the art wall. The art itself all seems to be black prints (rather Hugo Guinness-like), but there is a wonderful assortment of vintage frames.

Garret apartment

The Times ran one of my favorite features today: "Who Lives There," this time about a tiny Greenwich Village apartment that I've often gazed at from the street (it's above Tea & Sympathy, one of my favorite breakfast spots). Now I know that the place is rented by a very chic woman who works for Barney's. It's 350 square feet and a fourth floor walkup, but still pretty awesome.

No slide show for some reason, but there are more pictures with the link that show the amazing skylight.

Tropical tile

I love the texture of this tile against the modern furnishings.

Clean look

High ceilings, window-wrapping bookshelves, Prouve chairs, doggie. What's not to like?

More whites and brights

Just another summery shot.
