To make the gorgeous view of Manhattan, including Central Park, the highlight of the apartment, minimal design was the primary goal for designer Tara Benet. White walls and clean lines keep the space simple and chic.

The living room ceiling only had a socket for a single chandelier. Sculptural, high-wattage lamps add light but continue with the minimal design that the homeowners loved.

In an effort to keep the living room clutter free and to add some visual weight to the space, a large wall unit was installed. A few shelves of gray add interest and depth to the otherwise all-white living room.

Details like the geometric pillow and zigzag throw contribute life to the room, while fur accents on the chairs bring in warmth. A simple office space takes full advantage of the gorgeous view of the city.
