I was so excited to see my high school friends Park Avenue apartment on the cover of  May 2012 House Beautiful.  The talented designer Christina Murphy did a fabulous job on the interiors. I adore her use of color. My other friend and co owner of Hidell Brooks Gallery provided lots of the art in this home. Sadly, the gallery did not get credit in the magazine.  Please click the link below to see the full spread of the interior.  It is well worth a look.

I love the Hickory Chair fretwork chairs in the dining room.  My weakness for lavender and hand painted wallpaper collide here.

The chevron painted bookcases are a fun touch.  I LOVE the Chris Hayman painting from Hidell Brooks gallery.  It makes the room.

All of the images below are more of her work.  She really has a great sense of color.
