“We were commissioned to design 11 model apartments for a Lower East Side residential building, One Manhattan Square. Each apartment tells the story of the unique characters who might someday inhabit the space. The apartments were transformed from white walled units into richly layered homes that are inviting to a range of potential residents.”

New York designer Anna Karlin transformed once white boxes into richly layered homes. Here are two of the apartments. The first a colourful and richly patterned home full of contrasts and collected objects. The second a welcoming space for friends and family to gather with soft textures and warm hues.

London/Milan based designer Nicolo Castellini Baldissera created a colourful cacophony in this Milan apartment. It has a wonderful European, travelled sensibility and all of the beautiful colours on the walls really add life and dimension. (Photos: Guido Taroni)

Spaces designed with the intention of being easy to look at and live with. Oh yesssssss I could not agree more. By NYC based Nicholas Obeid.

A double-height void is the centrepiece of this extension to an Edwardian house by De Rosee Sa. The Dulwich home is in an area with strict heritage guidelines and the client wished to enhance the character of the property while remaining sympathetic to the surroundings. A wonderful example of how modern and heritage can work in harmony with each other.

With so many oh so stylish apartments out there drowning in a sea of beige or is that off-white or white on white on white it’s refreshing to see an apartment with rich pops of colour. Deepest malachite green to washes of blue to textured grey. Upper East Side Apartment by Samuel Amoia.
