Where does the English Man in New York reside? Billionaire’s Row, bordering Central Park, naturally. The Police frontman and his wife, Trudie Styler, have since sold their Manhattan penthouse, but style lessons from their space (or, specifically, their living room) remain just as relevant today.
Sting’s penthouse has all the workings of a quintessentially luxurious New York home, starting with its neutral living room. The space is a masterclass in earthy neutrals, from the white base to the gray and cream soft furnishings that create the perfect canvas for experimenting with more daring colors. In Sting’s case, the latter came in the form of scarlet red ottomans and mustard leather accent chair — both of which demand attention in the room. Similarly, they feel more personal to the couple, especially when paired against the safer (but no less stylish neutral pieces).
