A close family friend recently sent me an article about Meg Ryan’s New York City loft. It has a bit more of a modern edge, while still maintaining a classic appeal. The bones of the loft allow for a seamless transitional space, where Ryan incorporates texture and contrast. Her style is every bit eclectic and cool. A nice refreshing palette  that can be appreciated in my land of espalier and chinoiserie.

A great arrangement of texture, contrast, and intimacy that is so rare to find in a loft space.

Another view.

I love the white exposed brick.

Excellent display of tall open shelving. If you are doing shelving- go all the way to the ceiling!!

A beautiful combination of texture and contrast.

I adore the collected sense of this space.

Beautiful dark hardwood.

I love the pattern in the tile and elevated tub in this bathroom.
