Open Living Room With Blue Sofa
To create a welcoming space in this townhouse, the designer used a base palette of white and serene blue, layered with gray and yellow. Accents like the Marset floor lamp and abstract painting add fun personality to the space, while a marble top was a simple way to customize the store-bought coffee table.

Blue Tufted Sofa
Pops of sunshine yellow add vibrant color to this living room without being overly bold. The neutral wall, rug and coffee table allow the blue sofa and artwork to stand out.

Leather Side Chairs and Table
This monochromatic vignette draws visual interest from its layering of textures: leather, sheepskin, linen. Placed opposite the couch, these chairs make entertaining effortless.

Contemporary Dining Space, Door
In this smaller New York City home, space was at a premium and the dining area was very close to the entryway. The table and pendant help define the space and keep it separate but harmonious as people come into the house.

Copper and Wood Table
This dining table gets stylish customization from copper legs and a wood top. Copper cups and a pendant light unify the design for a fresh, metallic aesthetic.

Contemporary Home Office
Upstairs, a petite home office gets dimension and color from two blue accent walls. Graphic pillows and a rug bring additional energy to the space, encouraging productivity.

Desk With Modern Artwork
A large, multicolored canvas is an unexpected touch to this calm, neutral home office. An expansive desk gives the owner plenty of room to work on projects.

Master Suite Boasts Barn Door
Down the hall, custom barn doors open to the master bedroom. The cinammon-colored wood is a rich and handsome contrast to the dark gray wallcovering.

Pinstriped Wallpaper
Dark, masculine suit-stitch textile wallpaper creates a dashing look in this master bedroom. For added comfort, the designers mixed light and dark tones with soft textiles for the bedding. Gold accents finish the luxe look.

Soothing Blue Hues
This master bedroom combines dark gray walls in a suit-style stripe with lighter furnishings and linens for a look that's balanced and sophisticated. A blue painting hangs over the bed for an extra dose of color.

Nightstand and Brass Sconce
To keep the dark walls from overpowering room, designers lightened the look with pops of white in the nightstand, artwork and bedding.

Pinstripe Wallpaper and Nightstand
This handsome wallcovering is not paper, but a textile with details just like a tailored suit. The dark backdrop accented by thin, colorful stripes creates an imaginative, masculine look.

Space-Style Mural
On the opposite wall, a gorgeous saturated mural depicts Earth as seen from space. For owners who enjoy travel and geography, the piece is an inspired choice that still keeps in line with the room's blue hues.

White-Trimmed Dresser
Because of the wall-sized mural, furniture needed to be simple, so the designers added a midcentury modern dresser, a glass lamp and just a few accessories. White trim around the dresser helps the piece stand out without competing with the mural.
