New New York Interiors is a new release created by TASCHEN,
after the great success of the original New York Interiors released
ten years ago. Much has changed in the Big Apple since then,
the city is still bristling with an exciting and eclectic mix of cut-
ting-edge movers, and it’s something that you can see in its interi-
ors. New York lives an extraordinary inflow of graphic designers,
interior designers, artists, gallerists, and collectors. Since Septem-
ber 11, the city has become less money-driven and more creative.
All the interiors that you’ll find in this new book were hand-
picked by editor and author Angelika Taschen. It’s a spanking
new collection of interiors that explores an array of homes as diz-
zying as diverse like New Yorkers, themselves. Take a peek into
the apartments of artist Terence Koh, artist and director Julian
by TASCHEN
Schnabel, musician Rufus Wainwright, porn diva Vanessa del Rio,
and actress Julianne Moore, among many others, you can have an
idea of the myriad and marvellous ways New Yorkers love to live.

in Heidelberg, obtaining her doctorate in 1986. Working for
TASCHEN from 1987 to 2010, she has published numerous titles
