It's not the eclectic artwork in this Manhattan apartment, that has me so scared.
It's just this weird feeling I get every time I look at these photos..which is quite often.
It seems that Lauren Stern, designer of this fabulous apartment, must have super natural clairvoyant powers!
It's as if she can read my mind. And, she knows exactly what my dream pied-a-tier would look like.
From the white kitchen and bath with gorgeous tiles and cool brass hardware to the amazing retro light fixtures. It's all a perfect mix of traditional, vintage, modern and classic.
And then, she tops it all off with this fabulous purple bedroom!
The little hairs on the back of my neck just stood straight up! Scary.

Ps: I hope you had a chance to enter my ban.do Giveaway!
You make me laugh! Love it! Love the subway tiles in the bathroom!
I just found your blog and am loving it! I too would be quite happy spending each and every day in Lauren's amazing apartment. I love the kicthen table and light fixtures. Also digging the tile backspash, foyer chandelier/wallpaper and purple bedroom- alot! Will definitely be following your blog from now one:) xx
I'm would be spooked by that skeleton picture on the wall in the kitchen. Especially looking at him while I ate!
The purple bedroom and the bathroom are fabulous. MAybe the artwork follows you around no matter which angle you look at if from!
That bathroom is a classic. Looks like it stepped out of the twenties or something fabulous like that. I believe the people that have true design skills do work like this. Place just a few simple pieces in a space that really makes the shine.

Love the writing factor on this one :) HELLO entry way! You'd have to push me out that door, I would never leave! Creepy houseguest who just s-t-a-r-e-s :) Ha! XO, Kel
I don't know where you find your divine designers - perhaps you're a little clairvoyant yourself! I can totally see you in that bedroom though the framed old-fashioned photo in the kitchen is a little spooky...
Cool and quirky!
hehe - spooky! she knows you well. ;)
such an amazing designer - love the purple walls in the bedroom.
happy thursday!
OMG! That kitchen, the lighting fixtures, the details...Obsessed!!

Fabulous Nan Lawson Giveaway going on @ Lilac and Grey!
I'm almost not sure why it works but it does. It is kinda cool, a little edgy, a little traditional. I like it!
Who cares if the artwork is scary, a fair trade off for the hallway wallpaper and brass vintage bath fixtures!
Very cool and different. Love the unexpected combo of purple in the bedroom (feminine) with the Brutalist chandelier (a little frightening!).
ah, yes -- a lovely purple bedroom!
(and very cool lighting all around.)
Spooky indeed!
You can easily fall in love with these.
Love all the great lighting!
Please write her and tell her your bad dream of not waking up there but wanting to! I love the quirkiness.

That is a GREAT apartment! I would take it any day. I think it's put me on the hunt for amazing brass bathroom fixtures.
I agree. The first thing that caught my eye were those fabulous light fixtures. So much about her style that I can relate to. Great space.
