People actually live in New York!

This apartment recently caught my eye on House Beautiful (I know, I know, I promise I have non-apartment/house topics for you later this week) for a couple of reasons.  First of all, it's in New York and not completely over the top.  Second of all, it actually looks like "real people" live there (i.e. not the kind that only live in magazines, with nary a photo here and there and a pair of designer shoes strategically placed by the bedside as if they were just tossed off after the owner did a wall-to-wall disinfection treatment).  Third, it even looks like these people might have kids...in New York??

In any case, it's young and it's fun and it's something  - that were one to be prone to a globally nomadic lifestyle like some of us - could easily be picked up and moved without yards of chintz and tonnage of furniture.  I love the use of white space, peppered with colorful accents, bold prints used in  measure, and graphic design statements (as some of know, typography is my weakness). 

Enjoy! I'd move in in a new york minute....
