After years overseeing social media for top American fashion brands (and curating her own wanderlust-inducing Instagram account), Amy Stone has mastered the art of communicating a feeling through color and composition. So when it came to decorating her new apartment, it’s no wonder she had a clear vision. “I love traditional sensibilities but with a lived-in feel,” Amy says. “I prefer masculine tones, I love rich fabrications, and I’m pro-stripe—that’s my philosophy for sure. And chinoiserie-happy always.” She also hoped to bring in a touch of the relaxed-meets-preppy style of Nantucket, her regular summer getaway and ultimate happy place.

To help bring her vision to life, Amy called on One Kings Lane Interior Design. “There was so much potential for it to be a really gorgeous space,” Amy says of the pre-prewar apartment she landed—complete with elegant moldings, a marble fireplace, and original doorknobs fitted with antique keys. After five years in her previous apartment, filled mostly with pieces she’d carted from her college days, she was more than ready for a fresh start.
