Photos on eye spy are for your gazing pleasure. I've tried to attribute each + every one, but for a slim minority the source, designer, or manufacturer has gone missing. If you recognize one of these, let me know its background and I'll be sure to track proper credits + links.

Katie Lydon

Londoner Katie Lydon designs beautiful interiors in and around Manhattan. Her interiors are somehow both vibrant and calm. Each possesses a healthy mix of fine antiques with modern art with upholstered pieces and the effect is classic. The thing that caught my eye is her ability to edit — no extraneous anything. Very nice.

Love the kid spaces in particular. Wonderfully charming and whimsical! I have to work on that editing thing...she definitely has it down!
