This has us feeling blue (308 East 79th Street via Sotheby's)
Throughout New York, many decorators and sellers turn to neutrals when getting ready to put a home on the market. This creates a clean palette that allows prospective buyers to better imagine their own possessions and style in the space. However, some listings have opted to put primary colors on proud display. Does this practice scare buyers away, or attract those with particularly niche tastes? Scroll through to find out.

Seeing Red
The Antionettes via Keller Williams
Talk about making a dramatic entrance!

The Hunchback of Brooklyn Heights
99 Clinton Street via The Corcoran Group
Quasimodo would feel right at home in Brooklyn's oldest church conversion. This loft residence features vaulted 23' ceilings, cathedral-like arches, stained-glass windows...all that's missing are the wise-cracking gargoyles from the Disney adaptation! See floor plan and full details here.
Work It
The Corona via Digs Realty Group
As some of us prepare for the possibility of having to work from home, this Upper West Side apartment comes with its own institutional home office built-in.

Kermit Had It Right

Hail and Well Met!

Hear ye, hear ye! This grand home in an Art Deco cooperative comes accented with handmade ceramic tiles in the kitchen, gold leaf accents, and hand-painted doors and cabinets throughout for a look right out of the Renaissance Faire. See floor plan and full details here.
Walk on the Wild Side
40 Sutton Place via Elliman
The Beekman and Sutton Place enclave is known for being a private and sedate part of New York, but this bedroom's zebra print and wall of mirrors are the opposite. The 1970's called and they want it back. See floor plan and full details here.
Feeling Blue
308 East 79th Street via Sotheby's
Does the color of this library's walls, beams, and built-ins create a calming atmosphere, or give the feeling of trying to read under the sea? See floor plan and full details here.
