The Sunday Spy 5.27.18
We Spy With Our Designer Eye
Each Sunday we’ll share a design that caught our eye and we took some time to savor. Architectural details, like the ones shared by Apartment Therapy of this fun nook. At first glance we see a vintage space made modern. With a closer look, we enjoy all the small details that make this black and white interior alive with color!
Ooooh…Here’s What I Love About This Design!
- striking black painted walls and crisp white trim
- transom, floor to ceiling windows bringing in lots of natural light
- bright hues everywhere make your eyes bounce around and hunt!
- classic mixed style chairs transformed into something totally new with a simple neon paint job
- traditional dark wood pedestal table waiting for the day to begin
- hot pink hidden pig sitting on top of a retro clock
- bright orange, yellow and pink cords creating a funky, hanging light fixture
- colorful reflective glass in the door
- small art, and a thoughtful saying posted on the transom sills
- stark white flooring contrasting against the black walls
- the perfect stop to drink your morning coffee and read the newspaper
- chinese urn with garden clippings sitting on top of a tea box perhaps?
- the young professional couple sneaking in a few minutes of conversation before biking into the city for work
- a pony tailed girl, in equally colorful stripped leggings, carrying her backpack to head off to a fun day at school
- the family queen bee calico cat, waiting to perch tabletop for the sunny afternoon
Savor This Sunday!

Do you know, Laurel – I didn’t notice the hot pink pig on the clock until I read it in your description – and then I wondered how I had missed it! What it is to have a designer’s eye!! Lxx
