Everything Alison Would Put in Her Dream Living Room

The living room in our New York City apartment is arguably the most important because it’s where everyone gathers–Michael likes to bang on the piano keys with us all gathered round, and when it’s chilly outside, we all cozy up in front of the wood-burning fireplace. So being able to create a stylish space that is as comfortable as it is beautiful is key. With all of that said, none of that is easy without knowing your personal sense of style. For me, I like warm, patterned, colorful, and, above all, not terribly precious. Lots of my coffee table books have crayon marks on them….but I won’t name names. Below, I’m sharing all of my living room essentials to give the room—no matter where it is—an undeniable sense of ease and coziness.
