I love their home. Especially that they have two of my favorite pillow on their couch.
Seeds in cream and black and the Mobile in seafoam. They should know I am having a sample sale next week so they can get some great pillows to swap out for another look. I will have great deals.

Hi Everyone...
answers to questions. ...for the light fixtures...the Modulight place installs them for you. For the shades ...I got them from Manhattan Shades and Glass. I think it is the ivory color...not sure, I bought them quite a while ago. The sunflower print is by Adam Fuss the photographer.
I think it is very important as a mom working to be close to home. If I need to run home to my boys...I can be there in a few minutes. That means the world to me to be close to my boys so I can be there in their time of need. So I would trade space for the closeness of home.
xRegards
Judy

Thank you everyone for your lovely comments. Being a hard working mom, it is important I come home to an efficient space and at the same time ...love my home.
I think I have accomplished that and the boys love their space so we are one happy family. Thank you for your kind words and any questions, I will happily answer.
Regards
Judy Ross

Yes, the table is part of the bed... It serves as a great space saving solution and extra work surface!

Hi Pearmelon,
If you go to http://www.modulightor.com/portfolio/ the third picture down in the light fixture. In that picture it is not put into one straight line like I did it , but it could be done just all in a row so it can be a length of 4 feet or more. Mine is about 18 feet long going from my hallway all the way thru the living room.

Hi Austere
I love love Fabindia. When I first went to India in the 80's, I was friends with WIlliam Bissell the son of the founder. I have always been a big fan of their bedspreads and I have many of them. I also love all their Khadi wear. Funny you should mention them....i almost used one of their bedspreads for the shoot. Do you have their work in your home?

Hi Jonathan and to a few others that mentioned 600 square feet and sharing a room for children is sad...I have a few comments. I chose living in a very nice neighborhood and a walk from my office over having a big space. New York City has so much to offer, myself and my two kids are out and about a lot. I think the only time the apartment feels a bit tight is at night when there is homework and bedtime. When my 11 year old goes to bed...we have to be respectful and quiet. My boys love their home, love their school life and enjoy all the great things a city has to offer. They can travel by subway or walk and there is so much to see and do. So the apartment is cozy....that is how we like to think of it. Regards Judy But I do say...I wish I had rented a loft downtown in the 80's and got to keep it for a song as many of my artist friends were able to do!

Jukles,
For my shades I went to Manhattan Shades to buy and have them installed. They are a wonderful plastic fabric that lets the light in but at the same time gives you privacy. I recommend them because you still get a beautiful defused light coming in and have your privacy at the same time. Regards Judy

Hi ray44
So the Ikea cabinets are the kitchen cabinets they sell...in a white lacquer. I think it is the LACK series. I did buy the corian separate and had to join two pieces to get the length. The corian is just so nice and clean. You could do just a white laminated piece and I think Ikea would make it in a special size. You should talk to that Ikea chat girl...even though sometimes she is not very understanding and helpful!
Hope this helps. Regards Judy

Hi,
It's Judy ....answering some of the comments!

medusa12120.....ok...give yourself up? Curious to know which neighbor it is? I love my building and I love Related Management. They are an amazing company and they manage their buildings well.

GIT...you are in luck...my boy's room will have its own special tour on Monday. Check Apartment Therapy then!

Showdogmaine.....Yes, the cover of that author's book is by Adam Fuss. Adam did a few of the photographs in my house. The two of my boys are in my bedroom and the Sunflower is in the living room.

Answers from Judy......
The piece by my kitchen is a credenza by Knoll. Regeneration furniture in Manhattan usually has some great Knoll pieces. You could also look at 1st Dibs on the web.
*** For the person who wants to move in after my boys leave...that might be 8 to 10 years..will keep you posted!! But I was dreaming of making that my own private yoga studio when they leave. To do sun salutations with those great corner windows would be amazing!!
**Send me any questions I would love to answer.
I am going to post this tour on the Judy Ross Textiles Facebook page, if you would like to see more about myself and my company please like us and join in.

Hi Anusha73,
I had the closets made many years ago. I could put you in touch with my designer, Ken Forman who could possibly do this for you. It involves putting in the custom doors, ( my apartment originally had the bi-fold doors that do not go up to the ceiling) and then the rack for the shoes is by Ikea. Depending if you own your apartment or you rent, will determine if you can break the full length of the wall for these floor to ceiling closet doors.
Let me know if this works and I can put you in touch. I could not say the costs since it was a big project and the closet was only a small part of it.

I appreciate people who paint their walls a color...that can work well and I have nothing against it....that goes for great wall paper too!
But for me, with a small apartment and lots of objects to bring the color in, I find white makes the space look and feel larger. My choice of white is a creamy white, Benjamin Moore White Dove.
I think it is great all the comments and I am glad there are colored walls out there!
