AOTM #3: Colourful Apartment in NYC

That was long time ago, but I just found a great candidate for a new: "Apartment Of The Month". I'll take you to Manhattan were Claiborne Swanson just decorated her first apartment, which looks pretty good, don't you think?

Before Claiborne Swanson Frank moved in her husband's apartment, it was a dead end story. All the rooms were empty and there was no decoration or furnishings. "That has to change right now!", she said. She didn't it all by herself but got help by her mother in law. They went to several stores and worked with great materials and heavy colours. Now she's more than happy with the result.

I find it a light and cosy apartment with lots of accessories (paintings, flowers etc.) And I like the colour accents in the pillows and rugs. When I look at her clothes I can imagine that she's pretty comfortable in living here. It reflects her tastes and who she is.
