Summary

Designers’ homes are often laboratories where they are free to experiment。 These spaces are filled with the designer’s most personal and cherished objects, furnishings, and artwork that are concentrated expressions of their style and interests。 New York Design at Home profiles 27 homes and looks at how these creative professionals approach design in their personal space。 Like most New York City residents, they are decorating with much smaller budgets than their work projects, but they find creative ways to deal with tiny bathrooms, awkward and unusable kitchens, and shared living spaces。 Photographed by Noe DeWitt, New York Design at Home highlights the carefully considered details within each interior—the Pablo Picasso painting reproduced as wallpaper, the kitchen utensils on display, textiles that provide pops of color in an otherwise monochromatic space—and captures the creative essence of these homes with new, never-before-published images。

I admit I didn't read every caption。The homes in this book were definitely different and unique。 Most of them looked difficult to live in on the regular, but were beautiful to look at。I read this mainly to get ideas for a more urban/modern style for my place, because I'm constantly surrounded by rustic ass fug。 Not sure I really found that。 Most of the styles were just too much clutter and stuff for my taste, although I'm sure they make their designers happy。 I hope。The quality of the pictures a I admit I didn't read every caption。The homes in this book were definitely different and unique。 Most of them looked difficult to live in on the regular, but were beautiful to look at。I read this mainly to get ideas for a more urban/modern style for my place, because I'm constantly surrounded by rustic ass fug。 Not sure I really found that。 Most of the styles were just too much clutter and stuff for my taste, although I'm sure they make their designers happy。 I hope。The quality of the pictures and the designs photographed were great。 No faults there。 Loved seeing so much LGBTQ representation。Overall, it won't be everyone's cup of tea, but if you don't covet Jayne Michaels couch, something is wrong with you。 。。。more

Although I enjoyed the wide range of styles exhibited in these "case studies" of New York design, I found the book's marketing of "decorating with much smaller budgets than their work projects" to be a tad misleading。 Of course, most of these homes are gorgeous。 Most also look exorbitantly expensive。 All in all, this is a nice read for design inspiration and would undoubtedly make a good coffee table book, but the designs aren't nearly as accessible as one might hope。 Although I enjoyed the wide range of styles exhibited in these "case studies" of New York design, I found the book's marketing of "decorating with much smaller budgets than their work projects" to be a tad misleading。 Of course, most of these homes are gorgeous。 Most also look exorbitantly expensive。 All in all, this is a nice read for design inspiration and would undoubtedly make a good coffee table book, but the designs aren't nearly as accessible as one might hope。 。。。more

I love any kind of interior design content, be it a renovation TV show or a coffee table book。 But this was quite a waste of time。 These homes range from "bizarre, not my taste, but liveable" to "literally just looking at a picture of this room is making my eyes hurt。" And they're all so huge for New York! I was kind of hoping for some tiny design, as that's my favorite, but nope。 These are all prime examples of "this person has more money than taste" in so many ways。 I love any kind of interior design content, be it a renovation TV show or a coffee table book。 But this was quite a waste of time。 These homes range from "bizarre, not my taste, but liveable" to "literally just looking at a picture of this room is making my eyes hurt。" And they're all so huge for New York!
