I
arrive to a NYC High Rise with my fellow blogger and friend, Christy (who took
these fabulous pictures that you are about to see http://www.lifeofamodernhousewife.com). As we walk into a beautiful high rise not
expecting anything but first class, keeping with the reputation of the well
known Kips Bay Show House, right away we notice there are lots of large dogs
that are coming and going from this building.
Since we are animal lovers and we both have large dogs, I have a sad thought
about the kind of life these pups must have with no back yard and living in an “apartment”. I will admit, I didn't feel sorry for the dogs for long. This is what I saw:

Here is part of the outdoor seating area with the pool sitting behind. It was a rainy day.

We were told that many of the homeowners add grass and trees to their balconies. Which made me realize --- any dog would be LUCKY to call this place home.
Just a quick note to let you know that I appreciated your insights about the topic. Quite helpful for what I am interested in these days.

These are jaw-dropping interior designs, Jane. The small bar area in the kitchen would be my favorite too. :P Well, each interior designer has his/her own unique style of designing. You must have a huge passion for interior designing to find all those designs. I'm impressed. I wish you could post some of your designs here too, Jane. Yes, I definitely would like to see them. :)

I agree with what Louie has to say, that each interior designer has his/her own unique style. I have to say though that it all boils down to the design theme. A great interior designer must know how to play with the color patterns, be effective in utilizing the given space, and they must have a keen eye for detail and aesthetics.
