Urban Oasis

This is the apartment in New York City that Vern Yip decorated for the Urban Oasis giveaway. I am in love.



My favorite type of design is blending old with new. That Lucite side table next to the 1860 marble lion is stunning. The picture above is the New York Public Library.



The living room is neutrals with pops of reddish orange (my new favorite color). He used this theme throughout the apartment. Especially loving the aluminum side tables and 1900 wrought iron flag brace. That area rug is 100 years old and Peruvian, I wonder if Target carries it?





Over sized back wall paneling combined with those 1916 pediments makes my knees weak. Loving this bed and the spots of orange.





Black glass tile from floor to ceiling, gorgeous. Beautiful little sculpture in the window is such a perfect touch.

Love the bed, and that herringbone floor in the bathroom is making me die. Love.

I like Vern. He has real style. And a gentle soul to boot.
