After growing up in the Bay Area of California and living in Paris for five years, the designer (and former Fashion Funder) Erin Fetherston moved to New York in 2007 and immediately launched the search for a new space that possessed the same old-world charm as her apartment in France. After looking for more than a year (“It was so much harder than I had expected,” she says), she finally found the perfect spot: a recently converted loft in Tribeca with high-ceilings and massive windows that overlook the Hudson River. She took to the task of decorating immediately—a process greatly slowed by the fact that it took several months for her beloved antique and vintage furniture to make the slow boat trip across the ocean. “I spent a lot of time in this big apartment with almost no furniture,” she says with a laugh. But, for Fetherston, it was well worth the wait. “I see it as a reflection of my creative universe,” she says. “It’s romantic and chic, but clean and modern.”
