Reimagining Carrie Bradshaw’s Iconic Apartment

5 techniques to transform an interior using Carrie Bradshaw’s apartment from “Sex and the City” as an example:

1. Change the color palette — for example, to a deep green. This instantly transforms the interior.

2. Add accent colors — this is my favorite: mixing a large number of shades that at first glance don’t seem like they would work harmoniously together.

3. Separate different areas by color and atmosphere, but still connect them through common elements — such as parquet flooring, decor, or one tile collection in different shades.

4. Accents can be neutral if the walls are the main accent color. In the entrance area, for example, metal shelves look like art pieces against the green wall.

5. Combine the uncombinable — not just in color, but in form, materials, and style: chrome shelves and herringbone flooring, leather and glossy tables, glass and classic arched windows, moldings, architectural portals.
