It’s easy to step into a well-designed space and know it works. It’s often harder to describe why, exactly. BOH asked celebrated designer Alexa Hampton to dissect the choices behind her moody, maximalist Manhattan bedroom.
There is no doubt that Alexa Hampton has mastered the language of design. In the 25 years since taking over her late father’s eponymous firm, Mark Hampton, she has earned a regular place on industry best-of lists, authored numerous books and columns, and designed product for a range of brands, from Kravet to Theodore Alexander to The Shade Store. In her latest book, Design, Style & Influence, Hampton offers a peek into her inner world—and her family’s home—as she chronicles her life’s work, personal style and the inspiration behind it all.
