Elegant city houses - with a country twist

Hi all! Sorry I've been MIA - I was packing to spend this next month visiting my parents - and then there was the whole moving and unpacking process - which I"d rather not think about. Well, now that I'm here in the country - listening to the crickets and birds - mixed in with the clickity clack of my keyboard - I thought a little reminder of civilization was in order.




The above is a one bedroom, one bath loft in Manhattan's NoHo neighborhood - "NoHo" meaning "North of Houston" - a name created by the real estate industry to give an area a trendy age and thus - up the edge on the prices.


The two images here are from the luxuriously renovated D.C. townhouse.


I adore this wide expanse of floor - a renovated Savannah townhouse.

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.
