Coming from a family of New Yorkers, I always admired the idea of compact living. The well-designed apartments in the city fascinated me with their chic style and efficient use of space. This is why I truly appreciate individuals who can bring out the charm and character of an apartment, just like the stunning home of professional ballet dancer Misty Copeland.
After relocating to the Upper West Side of Manhattan with her husband, Olu Evans, Misty decided to revamp their new apartment with the expertise of renowned interior designer Brigette Romanek. Known for her profession that demands grace and poise, Misty’s apartment reflects sophistication and simplicity. The space is adorned with tasteful decor that showcases the couple’s personality without overwhelming the area with unnecessary clutter. It’s a beautiful equilibrium.
Misty’s apartment is themed around “pops of color,” with a predominantly muted color scheme on the shelves, walls, and floors, featuring soft whites, grays, and browns. However, interspersed throughout are vibrant bursts of color that add a touch of excitement. These pops include elements like a sea green rug in the kitchen, a bright red potted plant in the living room, captivating artworks, and a well-stocked wall bar with imported Japanese whiskey, loved by her husband.
Misty’s home emanates a sense of tranquility. It’s not a space for lively parties but rather a serene setting for a peaceful Sunday morning, lounging on the couch with a good book and a tune in your heart. It’s the kind of home that anyone would love to experience.
