This inspiring collection of unique, intimate, and authentic interiors will have city- and country-dwellers alike dreaming of carving out a personal haven far from the five boroughs.
This collection of compelling and characterful interiors in upstate New York presents an inspiring look at life beyond the big city. To daydreaming and design-minded urbanites and country dwellers alike, Upstate offers unique, intimate, and authentic spaces on both sides of the Hudson, ranging from tranquil, minimalist retreats to exuberant small-town residences. Among them is a farmhouse of globetrotting food photographers, a lavender-hued Victorian brimming with eclectic curios, a stunning cottage with modern furnishings and elegant Georgian bones, and the country-house-on-acid of an artist and art director, complete with giant mushroom side tables and permanently installed party streamers.
Though highly distinctive, the interiors featured share a common ethos: each results from a slow and creative approach to decorating that centers on collections gradually assembled, delights in the handmade, embraces imperfection, and values character and comfort above all.
