TODAY’S INTERIOR INSPIRATION comes from the Brooklyn apartment of interior designer Adam Charlap Hyman. The landlord had stripped away all details and ornamentation from the small two room parlor in a brownstone in Carroll Gardens, which left a blank canvas for the interior designer’s creativity to run wild. Warm pink walls and chartreuse drapery, books and artwork and even a wood fireplace that the designer brought in and painted to look like marble, all contribute to a storybook space filled with character. “Every single moment in the house is considered and referential,” Charlap Hyman points out, “Whether it’s a scene from a movie or a spread in an Architectural Digest from 1981 or something I read in a book.”
