My Dream Apartment...(swoon)

When I first saw photos of this home in New York magazine a few months ago, I fell in love. I could totally picture myself living there. It feels relaxing and calming just looking at the photos. The city is full of chaos so it makes sense to come home to a peaceful living space. Doesn't it look like a beach house? You'd never know it's in Brooklyn (Park Slope). I would probably add a little more color to this place, but I love the wood accents everywhere. It's beautiful. I like to close my eyes and pretend and it's my apartment. haha.

This home was shot by The Selby and is inhabited by its designers. The husband, Fitzhugh Karol, made the amazing wood furniture featured throughout the home. LOVE!

You can't tell from this photo, but that's a sliding door on the right (from a barn) that covers the bathroom entrance. It looks really cool.

The floors everywhere are white. I wonder if it's hard to keep clean.

Cute sink overlooking the backyard. The plants remind me of my mom. We have some in our home just like them.

Sweet pottery.

They must not use their KitchenAid very often. I would hate to try to get that down from that shelf.
