Fall in Love (Again) with Your Apartment; Decorate Like a Parisian: In Case You Missed It (My Feb. Newsletter)
By Diana Mosher
Did you move away from New York when COVID came to town? Lots of people did, but those of us who stayed behind are noticing that some New Yorkers are coming back now and then—even if they can work at home every day. Hopefully you didn’t give up your city apartment. But even if you did, this is an excellent time to buy or rent prime New York City real estate at a reduced price. Whether you’re moving in, moving out or just feel out of sync with your space, there’s no better time to get a second opinion on your apartment’s decor. My interior design consultations produce ideas you can implement right away as you ponder whether or not to do a larger project. One client was amazed at the difference in her home office when we introduced a piece from a different room.

If you’d like to shop New York’s to-the-trade resources, I’m happy to be your guide. The showrooms are following strict COVID protocols. If you have a mid-winter makeover in mind, but you’re unsure where to start contact me here to schedule a 30-minute free consultation. See you on Zoom, FaceTime or in person in the city!
