Miles Redd's New York City Townhome

Recently, I did a post on sofas and couches that Miles Redd has used
in his designs.  The subject of this post is Miles Redd's own New York
City town home.  What a fantastic facade don't you think?  Superchic 
with monotone paint, striped awnings and European style shutters that
frame the outside of all the windows.

The door is painted in a very pretty Robin's Egg sort of blue.

This kitchen has got to be one of the most ogled kitchens on the web.
And of course, it belongs to none other than Miles Redd.  I'm not even
a fan of black kitchens and I'm in complete awe of this one.  Lacquered
black walls and cabinets with a unique countertop material - glass.  It's
not very practical but it sure is unique.  I bet it made you look twice.  The
flooring is gorgeous as are the lamps he used under the cabinets. 
 

State of the art appliances including a TV monitor built in.


A look from above those glass countertops.
 

Miles always pays special attention to doors and these zebra covered 
doors with nail head trimming is no different.  Super fun and chic.
 Here's that gorgeous crimson tufted corner sectional I just drool over.


It makes one at least consider pink as a paint color 
even if one has never considered it before.


Here's a beautiful photo of Miles REdd's bedroom.
A picture that captures a gorgeous mood.


The same bedroom with Miles Redd on his own bed.  
I love that he tufted the headboard all the way to the top.

 

The bedroom leads to a completely mirrored dressing room and bathroom.


Talk about stepping into a fantasy.  You'd probably imagine a dressing
like this would belong to an old Hollywood silent film star. 

 You can see the sink and vanity from here and the marble encased 
bath tub in the mirror opposite of the vanity.  Totally over the top.
I'm not entirely sure I could live in a room covered entirely in 
mirrors but it's a cool room to check out.
   

When it comes to Miles REdd's outdoor space, it is absolutely
like a dream - straight out of a fantasy.  I love the color palette
and all of the things he has done with it.

 

Simply amazing with the turquoise Trompe-l'oeil trellis which is 
out of this world.  The black and white harlequin patterend floors
really finishes the space off.

Living Room Designs and Sofa Picks by Miles REdd

  Miles Redd is a New York City based designer who is one of the top designers 
of the contemporary era in myhumble opinion.  I'd have him pick out my sofa, 
color and fabric to cover the sofa any day.  This is exactly what this post about, 
a look at living space that Miles Redd has designed and with a focus on the
sofa designs he has used.  This red tufted corner sofa sits in Miles Redd's own
living space.

 Many of you know that I love tufted furniture so I am totally gaga over this sofa.

 His sofas are usually covered in soft velvet or other fabrics that are 
luxurious and soft.  The sofas look super comfortable in addition
to looking pretty.  That's the issue for me - I see a lot of sofas that
are pretty but aren't always what one would consider to be "super"
comfortable.  The sofas that Miles Redd uses in his living room 
designs somehow fulfill all aspects of function, aesthetics and
comfort.


Here's another couch I would Love!  The tufted couch looks very
comfortable and soft.  Looks like the perfect place to lounge and 
watch tv from.

 


You can see that Miles Redd also favors tufted sofas and chairs.
The tufted chairs above in this Miami condo look very comfortable.


I love that he painted this entire room in high gloss paint.






 This is one porch where I could totally curl up on the couch
and read or nap.  The sofa looks like it's filled feathers. 

Which sofa or living room is your favorite and why?
