Uptown Girl

 In Lindsey Harper’s tiny New York apartment, space is no constraint on her opulent, colorful style.

Situated just inside the entry, the bed is distinguished by an exuberant upholstered headboard. Chocolate satin tufted with blue mother-of-pearl buttons provides a dramatic backdrop for a bed of crisp white linens. An antique Suzani textile covers the foot of the bed. A pair of swing-arm lamps at bedside preserves precious table space. Buttons: Tender Buttons

On a console just inside the door, a vintage lamp and Foo dogs add color, while a framed commercial sign rewards the observant visitor. Spots of red accent the African-inspired wallpaper—in the console surface, the matting around an architectural print, and in an adjacent garden seat.
