This 850-Square-Foot Brooklyn Heights Apartment Is the Epitome of Romance
Briefly

Talia Mayden, a commercial director, emphasizes the importance of ambiance in her Brooklyn Heights apartment, advocating for soft lighting and intentional decor choices. Utilizing the space's original features like a grand fireplace and bay windows, she cultivates an atmosphere of beauty. Mayden creatively conceals less appealing elements, such as plastic switchplates, by painting over walls and cabinets in rich, moody colors. This transformation represents her artistic journey, reigniting her passion for creativity in a space that feels like a personal vision realized.
"I always considered myself an artist, but as I've gotten older, my day-to-day life has had a lot less creativity in it than I imagined."
"The number one rule for a romantic life is never to use overhead lighting."
