Manhattan Townhouse. Renovations: Annabelle Selldorf. Interior Design: D'Apostrophe

We all know that I love tufting and brass, shiny stuff, art, modern design, and all things luxurious from the mid-twentieth century. So, naturally, I had to post this townhouse upon seeing its living room and the vintage Paul Evans sofas within. Yum-o! I find the dining room's Knoll side chairs equally scrumptious (velvet, of course) and the marbled master bath, in a word,... awesome. Transformed from empty shell to airy living space by Selldorf Architects and decorated by D’Apostrophe, this Manhattan home is one for the Sukio archives.

"What could be lovelier than a classic 19th-century Manhattan townhouse? So elegant, so commodious—no wonder it’s the dream of countless space-starved New Yorkers," writes Mayer Rus of Architectural Digest. I wholeheartedly agree. Except, it's the dream of this space-starved Washingtonian as well!

Desiré is a designer, blogger, and lover of all things glamorous. Though primarily a self-taught decorator, Desiré studied at The Art Institute, where she honed a distinct aesthetic largely influenced by the Modern Glamour movement, the theme of her popular design blog, Sukio. Not only is she considered a "closet fashionista," discreetly stashing handbags and shoes whenever possible, but, as an MIT graduate, she’s also an undercover nerd. Fashion, nerdom, and several years as a Washingtonian have combined to shape her unique perspective on interior design.
