I like the navy wall especially, but the artwork steals the show for me!

My favorite room thus far!. (Yes, probably because of the navy wall and the artwork)

I love that navy colour! Gorgeous! I also really like the art work, it fits in well. Where did you get the Independent piece from?

If anyone is curious, the Independent print is by Damian Hirst & available here: http://www.nowallsgallery.com/artists/damien-hirst/no-news-today/67/0.htm

where is that large "brick" lamp from? awesome colors btw

I'm liking this for the awesome giant art.

Thanks AT for selecting my entry. I purchased "The Independent" from Other Criteria. The floor lamp is from http://www.noguchi.org/. I'm a fan of akari light sculptures and the subtle mood they create. I appreciate the compliments.

What is the navy colour that you used?

Blue and green are my fav colours as well so I'm very drawn to your rooms. Love the colours you used!

This is the first room that I've truly loved, especially the navy. I'm not so sure about the green but it seems to work in the room.

Your color combo's work so well together. Not being a big green person, I found I loved the color when combined with the navy. Bold, but not over the top. Love it!! I am curious about the white square boxes stacked in the corner...lamp perhaps?? I WANT it!! Your decor is so modern and tasteful with a just so slight edge. Perfection!!

By far my favorite! Love the navy, white, brown and red combo. Where is the white coffee table from?

Finally a strong entry that made me want to see more than the main pic.

Not that I'm an expert or anything, far from it, but it feels like there's just almost too much going on. In one respect I nearly said FINALLY! out loud because I love that the TV wasn't a showcase or focal point of the far wall, but merely a player in a collection of items headed up by that wonderful red print. I think the sculptural lamp just looks like a little too much right there. Maybe if the smaller print were hung above the tv and the lamp sort of slid in its place to create a series of 3 with the two prints since they all read the boldest?

I guess what I'm trying to say is, although I love the space and can value a very styled and detailed room, to a point it gets to looking like the editing has just stopped. I mean no offense.

"The Independent" is too large for where it is hung. It feels forced, out of place. It would look better on the opposite wall, the red would complement the green. And one of the tiger paintings/prints could be moved onto the navy wall, bringing the two walls together. Everything else seems nice, needs a bit of tighter editing though. I would also replace the wire coffee table with something smaller and maybe clear (there is really too much stuff happening) so you could place the ottoman with the Eames lounge chair where it belongs. So far this is the best entry. Great job.

Not a big blue fan...even if it is navy. But anybody posting their place deserves kudos!

I love that Mark was able to create a very masculine room, while still creating a warm and inviting space by using a variety of different textures. Nice work!

I really, really love this room (even if I am not a green person myself). I want to see the rest of the house, please!

i'm really loving everything about this room except the green wall. I think a mustard yellow would be better, but the green could grow on me

Love this! The artwork fits in so well!

Can someone tell me where I can get the dog on the picture? I believe this is a very expensive/hard to find Jeff Koon Puppy vase maybe? is there something like this on the market?

I love this space and colour scheme and I think the Damien Hirst fits perfectly. I want one!

Oh Mark... Is it possible to fall in love with someone just based on his décor? ::sigh::

I love how the TV disappears against the Navy Blue wall, hidden in plain sight!

Lovely, very sophisticated room. Is that a marble wall where the floating shelves are installed?

I don't see the other entrants responding so I don't know if it is appropriate to respond. Oh well.

cary2fred: I've been described as low-key, understated, and simple with a wink. And so, your descriptions "but not over the top" and "slight edge" resonated with me. The object in the corner (stacked boxes) is in fact an akari light fixture.

MelanieAch: The coffee table is from Knoll.  It also functions as a bench and is very kid friendly (8 nieces and nephews)

brittanylynn and Graphist:  There is a method to my madness. I attempted to create balance with the three prints on the navy blue wall which extends into the open kitchen. There is another print that is similar in size to the one by the paper lamp.  And so, when you look across the full length of the blue wall (living room and kitchen), The Independent does not appear to be to so random and large.  Also, the first photo exaggerates the size of The Independent as I stood on a stool to snap the photo.  At eye level, you may find there is more balance.  No doubt though, the print is a large piece.

The room is intentionally positioned "looking away" from the green wall.  It would have been too overwhelming to see the green upon entry and as a backdrop to my television.  I wanted The Independent to be the focal point when you walk into the room.  And because the green wall is too harsh on its own, I created a single clean line across the center of the wall with the prints to break it up.  Finally, I'm thinking about putting a credenza against the green wall or behind the sofa which would cover The Independent.

I lived in a much larger apartment before moving to Brooklyn where the coffee table and Eames ottoman co-existed right next to each other for several years.  During that time frame, I rarely used the ottoman as a footrest.  When I moved to this smaller unit, it didn't bother me to re-position the ottoman behind the sofa for extra seating.  Plus, I just couldn't part with that coffee table.    However, I do have three perfect replacements waiting should the funds miraculously become available.  

lorrinm: In the last photo, I have some dried flowers and a Rauschenberg print with hints of yellow.  Mustard is actually a color I considered to compliment some of my artwork.

cgillespie:  Yes, that is a Jeff Koons Puppy Vase (or as my brother calls it - an umbrella holder).  A search online will reveal a number of galleries and auctions featuring the sculpture.

joseph23:  Only if the room truly reflects the owner.  Sure.

jillya:  Not a solid marble wall.  Marble tiles on the facade.

Thanks again for all the positive comments.

is this one brooklyn bridge park?? love the blue, green, white combo. classic, preppy, modern.

OMG...Its beautiful....never before have I seen navy blue and bright green exist in as much harmony...Great space.
Love that the artwork is huge...anything smaller would have been lost imho.

I love the Tiger prints...source?

such an inspiration for my new house!

I absolutely love the space. The dark navy color on the wals actually makes the are seem larger...I think your whole space is beautiful and unique.

That is absolutely my favourite Hirst piece - I recently bought a print of it for my own place. Interesting to see how great it looks somewhere with a completely different colour palatte to mine. Lovely.

This is my favorite entry...the colors are different, the place is elegant and very unique. Good taste and good color combination!

I've been wanting to paint a wall navy blue for a long time and have been discouraged by friends, but this is giving me the courage to do it. YAY! NAVY BLUE. One accent wall. It's gorgeous. Well done!

It might be a bit pre-mature to throw in the towel - it was fun while it lasted.

Good bold choices for the art and wall colors.
