For too long, creams, beiges, and whites have stood as the most reliable decorating hues. While these tones are safe and, we admit, very beautiful, there remain other colors that are surprisingly as versatile. They just need a platform. One such example is the blue sofa in George and Amal Clooney’s former townhouse.
Located on Manhattan's SoHo, on Sullivan Street, the townhouse George and Amal rented during their stay in New York in the mid-2010s is a blueprint for softened industrial design (with exposed brickwork). Yet, rather than warming the high-ceilinged living area with conventional neutral, the space relies on a far more dramatic anchor: A dark blue living room sofa.
