The Difference from Urban Sophisticates: Walls are Bright, Not Dark

An interior that is clearly an art collector's home, not a typical urban yuppie apartment. Urban yuppie spaces feature dark wood, dark green and charcoal walls, and low-lit evening atmospheres, with the focus on the lifestyle elements of wine, vinyl, and leather. This space is the opposite: the walls are warm white or very light gray, similar to a museum, with clear illumination, and the focus is on the works hanging on the walls. Dark colors are reserved only for the flooring, a few pieces of furniture, and door frames. Avoid: painting walls dark to depress the space, using large areas of dark wood finishes, creating a space that only works atmospherically at night, making wine cabinets and audio systems the visual focal points.

一個明顯是藝術收藏宅而非一般雅痞公寓的室內。都會雅痞是深色木、墨綠與炭黑的牆、低照度的夜晚空間,主角是酒、黑膠與皮革的生活感;這裡相反:牆面是接近美術館的暖白或極淺的灰,照度分明,主角是掛在牆上的作品。深色只留給地坪、少數家具與門框。避免:把牆漆成深色壓低空間、使用大面積的深色木作、把空間做成只在夜晚成立的氛圍、讓酒櫃與音響成為視覺焦點。
