Home Decor: New book, ‘Authentic Interiors,’ features rooms that tell stories  

Author and interior designer Philip Gorrivan talks about home decor, authenticity and how to tell a family’s stories through their interior design.

For this Brazilian couple’s New York City apartment, designer Philip Gorrivan drew from the exuberant palette of Rio’s Carnival and Brazil’s tropics

So I rang up the author, interior designer Philip Gorrivan, to discuss the secret to designing rooms that tell not just stories, but our stories. “If you’re going to design your home, whether a grand house or a shoebox apartment, whatever the budget, make sure your interior space is an extension of who you are,” he said over the phone. “This, after all, is where you come home, sleep and live.”

While I have a lot of respect for neutrals and earth tones, color is powerful and transformative. The chapter titled “Reinvention,” for example, features a New York apartment we made over after the owner got divorced. He was living in the same place he’d shared with his ex-wife and wanted it to feel completely different. Painting the walls bright spring green felt like a new beginning.The word “authentic” is in the title because it’s important to me.
