The doors are painted glossy yellow to offset the neutral walls. The plate above the closet door is from John Rosselli Antiques.

The apartment owner, David Kaiser, received the silhouette portrait of himself by artist Karin Spraggs as a gift.

Decorative painter Chris Pearson revamped the wood-varnished floors with a blown-up tumble- block pattern for what interior designer Miles Redd calls “a kind of comic-book glamour.”

The Bedroom
The chest was painted Yves Klein blue by decorative artist Agustin Hurtado. The Louis XVI–style chairs are covered in an ikat fabric. To the mirror’s left is a signed, limited-edition Loopy print, by Jeff Koons.

The Living Room
When Redd first saw the apartment, he says it was “just a Sheetrock box from the eighties.” The mantel is a reproduction of one in Doris Duke’s home, and the coffee table was found at auction and painted white. The urns and sconces were designed by Redd and custom-made for the apartment.

Dining Room
Redd found the game chairs at Doris Duke’s estate sale and reupholstered them in new, colorful fabrics. He bought the dining-room table at auction at Doyle, then ebonized the exterior. Only the two front columns of the wood cabinet, which was bought from Sotheby’s and now holds Kaiser’s library, are ebonized. The lamp over the table is from Visual Comfort. “It had an ugly old parchment shade, so we painted it emerald green and silver-leafed the inside,” he says.
