drooling...drooling...drooling

..the floor - SIGH!

the floor, the wall, the white dishes, the plain glass, the ladder with books

and the paintings... OH ...MY GOD ..

and the ceilings..All so White and yet so colorful.. the rugs.. OH MY and the ART work... OH MY MY...

tomorrow i'll be in chinatown and will be looking out

This apartment is so inviting and calm. I love it. I like the mix of Ikea/high end items to create such a soothing environment. Cool.

I am jealous about everything in this tour. I am going to go buy more white paint today!

beautiful! you've inspired me to reorganize my house/studio.

Wow. I love the kitchen and the open shelving in the dining room.

i love how light and airy it is. lately ive been going through a white phase. i love this home... its so light and clean and modern but its not too minimalistic- its just perfectly edited. i love all the art and accessories! the dining area is my favorite!

i am so bent outta shape now that i've seen this pad! i mean, this is what i've always wanted...down to the smallest detail it's just so right on. it looks clean and well edited, and still feels like home at the same time...just, yeah, i'm all about it.

Karl - (or anyone else) Where are those white floating shelves from? I want some like that for my kitchen. I need something strong enough to hold heavy loads of plates, glasses, etc. at 8' long. (so not ikea). Any recommendations? thanks

That's a really great space, btw.

wow! so beautiful!

I love this! What paint color was used in the kitchen?

Loveliness.

Oh, this is wonderful. Thank you for sharing, Karl! Your place is lovely and SO inspirational.

I absolutely love this place!

This is what interior designers called white done right and for good reason. Kudos.

Beautifully edited, warm mixed perfectly with cool, rugs just right, color just right--wow

love, love this place. i am on a white kick myself after visiting greece (Mykonos and Santorini). Where are those great dining room chairs from and if they are expensive does anyone know a lower end version?

they look similar to the long LACK shelf from ikea.

This loft is gorgeous. I especially love the dining room area.

This place is so gorgeous. I do love everything about it, the kitchen is great, it's so simple. Bibak...Those are Eames chairs, you can get them at DWR for around $250 Each... Whiteonwhite.com has the knock-offs for $150.

beautiful! your home is so calming, and yet energizing because of its simplicity. Is that a converted lack shelf you're using as a low table/console in the living room?

oh, and do you mind sourcing the cream throw in your bedroom?

Really great.

Lovely. Great balance.

This place is totally gorgeous!

You win. I know this block and building:) Lucky lucky..You have been there a while too..

Karl - I love your apartment - so warm and streamllined at the same time. Any chance you can let us know where you got the dining table?

Wow, what a beautiful space!

Could Karl or anyone else tell me where to find this ladder, or a similar one?

I've been looking for something just like it with not much luck...

What a perfect apartment. I've been looking forever for a rug like the one you have in your bedroom. would you mind sharing where is it from?

thanks!

Tasteful as can be

Wow. Just wow.

Fantastic.

Lots of inspiration here!

One of my favourite apartments ever - it is perfect! The purple in the kitchen is amazing.

To cc3tx

it is mentioned above that the dining room table is from Crate and Barrel.

I LOVE IT!Great taste!

From where is this desk?

The place is amazing -- white done right!

This is gorgeous! Can you tell me more about the white paint you used? Namely, is it a true, pure white, or is it a particular white (with traces of other colors in it) from a particular brand?

I painted my walls white 2 years ago - a great improvement - but now wish I had gone "whiter"; the white I used has umber (warm) tones mixed in. I am looking for a bright, fresh look, as in this loft or many examples in Vicente Wolf's books.

Wolf writes reverently about Benjamin Moore's "Super White", but as BM is not sold here (Europe) I cannot see just what kind of white it is.

Help anyone? Thanks!!

Does anyone know where the kitchen counter stools are from? I have been trying to find inexpensive draftsman stools for my kitchen.

Gorgeous loft!

Could you kindly give any tips regarding the installation of those floating shelves? I LOVE yours.

We are in the process of installing floating shelves in our kitchen and have encountered some difficulty devising a way to make them secure enough to reliably hold plates and glasses. Right now, we are trying to install them using threaded rods screwed directly into the studs with 9 inches of rod left outside the wall. We plan to drill holes in the shelves that correspond to the rod; the shelves will slide onto them. But I am not sure that setup will suffice.

Anyway, congratulations on a beautiful home. I love that it is so open, bright, and airy, without being sterile. Lovely!

Heaven.

The Black and White calendar on the bookshelf is from? I thought it was available at the MOMA design store but I can't seem to find it.

This loft made me want to register just so I can comment on it. It is apsolutly gorgeous. I totally love it.

Perfect, perfect, perfect!

Beautiful and warm. Appropriately complex.

(I just registered to comment specifically on your gorgeous home).

That celling is incredible! Can you believe that they used to throw away those tin tiles not too long ago?!
