Fashionably Domestic: Solange Knowles

The Brooklyn home of singer and style maven Solange Knowles is everything one would expect – cheery, eclectic, bohemian, and effortless. Like her wardrobe, Solange mixes and matches to suit her tastes. Accessories including art from Marfa, Texas, rugs from Morocco, and an ultra-modern coatrack by Tom Dixon all blend together against gallery-white walls. "I wanted to find a balance of having great colors and patterns but also a really livable, warm, serene space." The end result: a perfect pad for wining and dining.
