Back home to the city

I had a nice relaxing weekend at my parents farm this weekend, but now I am back home in NYC. I thought I'd ring in the week with some urban interiors to get me back in the swing of things. Do you prefer urban styles like these or more country interiors?


*love* the wide plank hardwood floors!

I like these tables mixed with the polish of the rest of the kitchen.

According to the New York Times, "Robert and Cortney Novogratz, who have seven children, have renovated 11 properties and lived in five of them, creating child-friendly spaces with contemporary art world touches." Looking through their portfolio, one can't deny they are talented - and how they manage to live in NYC with 7 children blows my mind (affording myself is hard enough). They also have a book deal with Rizzoli, and the entire family has signed a modeling contract with Ford. The book, Downtown Chic, will serve as a "decorating-and-renovating memoir in pictures" writes New York Times.
