This NYC Apartment Proves You Can Be Bold in Color Without Overwhelming Your Space | Open House TV

Join interior designer Garrow Kedigian inside what may be Manhattan’s most colorful pied-à-terre. Located in West Chelsea, just steps from the High Line, this bold and expressive apartment packs a design punch at every turn.

As Garrow explains, the journey begins in a dramatic entrance foyer where high-gloss finishes and a sculptural light fixture set the tone for a layered, reflective interior. The living room is a masterclass in breaking up rectilinear space—with multiple seating areas, a soaring mirror reflecting city views, and a ceiling painted in a vibrant, high-sheen color that turns heads.

Garrow plays with scale, geometry, and rich materials to make the most of the space. From custom furniture layouts to layered patterns and an antelope-print carpet, every detail is intentional. One standout moment? A bespoke cubic lampshade that continues the visual motif of the stacked cube shelving behind it.

Throughout the space, color is embraced without hesitation. A pink velvet sofa, floral pillows, and bold yellow dining chairs make confident statements while remaining cohesive thanks to Garrow’s disciplined approach to proportion and balance.

Though compact, the open kitchen holds its own thanks to a unique Paris flea market find—a dazzling vintage screen that offers just the right amount of separation between the cooking and living areas.

The dining nook, with its panoramic views, is anchored by a mid-century modern starburst chandelier and bold velvet seating. Garrow’s clever fabric choices echo the living room without repeating it, offering continuity without predictability.

In the bedroom, the mood shifts slightly. The same layered design approach is used, but in a more subdued palette. A custom-upholstered bed fits perfectly between two vintage mirrors, and the designer’s favorite antelope carpeting returns in a softer tone. Flea market finds like Murano glass bedside lamps and red-accented shades add just the right amount of personality.

This home proves that you don’t need a massive floor plan to make a big design impact. By embracing bold color, layered textures, and smart planning, Garrow Kedigian transforms this West Chelsea apartment into a small-space gem with serious style.
