I’m ever so grateful to Elle Décor magazine for featuring the re-design of my own loft in their April 2022 issue.  In my very personal home, modern furnishings are juxtaposed with period pieces as well as those personally sourced finds from my remote travels.  As an inveterate traveler, I bring the world home to my peaceful and ever-evolving Manhattan loft.  My art-filled apartment mixes such treasures as a 19th century daybed I picked up in Borneo, a Burmese table repurposed as a vanity, Stupa antiques from Thailand, several mid-century pieces from Paris – and many custom furnishings of my own design.  Museum quality art, and especially my black and white photograph collection that rest throughout on picture rails, are continually being shifted around.  I find that if pieces stay in place, they become part of the background rather than maintaining their visual interest.  My loft is an invigorating, sophisticated and edgy-yet-warm space pairing furnishings that are both calming and simultaneously add a certain tension to the environment.  This is my happy place.
