Emphasis on Texture
In an 1840s Federal townhouse in NYC's West Village, a neutral palette is elevated with texture. The 19th-century armchairs are upholstered in a Perennials fabric, and the circa-1800 tall-case Mora clock are Swedish. The bronze-and-basalt cocktail tables are custom, the steel wall lamp is by Wo & Wé, and the burl-root sculpture on the mantel is from Full Circle Modern.

Gothic Grays
A Memphis home gets a Gothic makeover from the owner and interior designer Sean Anderson. "I've always loved black rooms," he explains, so every last wall, save for a guest room, was designed in a timeless, brooding shade. To add depth, the floors were white-washed, an element that Anderson says actually makes the house feel brighter.
