HOMME: Designer in résidence - Alexander Wang


Text by interior design & home deco column HOMME contributor: Eric

      Fashion designer Alexander Wang first collaborated with his decorator Ryan Korban during their years at college. Korban has never taken any formal education of interior design, so far, he has designed for Wang’s old apartment, showroom as well as his new store just opened months ago.
      This time, Korban creates a really stylish space for Wang's new apartment in New York. We think Wang’s living space is just as sexy as his handbags! Let's take the tour!


      The living room is divided into two areas: The first side features a palette of cool, black wooden floor with two big zebra rugs lying on it. The furnitures, mostly in black, forming a high contrast against the white walls.

        On the other side, it’s a totally different space. Everything is soft: Couches and chairs are white in color, while the cabinet, the rug and the lightings add warmth to this cosy room.


      Kitchen: Basically, it's an open kitchen with a small dining area -- a typical New York home living style.


      The refrigerator mainly stores liquid refreshments.

      First of all, this is the hottest dining room I've ever seen! It features a black crocodile dining chair and a chrome dining table - the legs of the table are formed in two "A"s.

Wang's bedroom has a big mirror beside his bed, so that he can check himself all the time (?!)
