A Bright and Airy Home

Blanca, a jewelry designer and Aniket, an architect, live in a 110-year-old home in Brooklyn, New York. They redecorated on a shoestring budget to make it feel big and airy—which is a bonus since they’re expecting twins this spring!

“When we moved in, the rooms were painted funky colors—bright reds, canary yellow,” says Blanca. So the couple rolled up their sleeves and painted everything white, which made the space feel “calm and spacious,” she says.

Faux sheepskin throw, $40 and sofa, $500 from IKEA. Coffee table, $400 from Blu Dot.
