An east village backyard
JJ lives in a cute little studio in the East Village - totally different from the charmless high rise apartment building I inhabit. He even has a backyard that he shares with a neighbor who is something like a wardrobe director for TV. I love the way she styled the backyard. It's not quite all captured here (on Kodak Portra 400VC I might add), but you get a sense of its vintagey aesthetic.
I also love the exposed/rough-edged panels of the door. I would say it's definitely a bit of a luxury to have a backyard in NY of your own. I'm already envisioning lazy summer evenings spent there in lawn chairs with ice cold beers and strings of adorable paper lanterns... oh sigh.

The east village is my hoood! A backyard is quite spectacular. If he has rooftop access, he should probably never move.
ReplyDeleteA backyard in NYC? Priceless.
ReplyDeleteLove the mood, and yes, I can definitely see how cozy spending summer evenings here would be!
