GREENWICH VILLAGE APARTMENT

Oznell — Mon, 22 May 2023 13:00:56 GMT

I don't know Chloe Fineman, since I never watch "Saturday Night Live". But, she is lucky enough to have a relatively spacious Greenwich Village apartment, and a developed taste that is her own, not cookie cutter, and that fits rather well with her setting.

Of course, I predictably love the eclecticism of her green velvet couch, with the tribal basket and moody marble table. She said the painting, vigorously awash with color, was done by her sister.

When she was looking for a rental apartment, she typed in "brick, one bedroom"-- since the presence of brick was something she desperately wanted. I understand that desire!

More of that soulful brick. Love her low-slung fluted console, and her rug. Look at the ceiling's crown molding, reflected in the mirror--

Another of the appealing aspects of her design style, for me, is her incorporation of Art Deco furniture and other touches-- like this curvy vintage chair--

More Art Deco! In the form of a "stepped" coffee table in another corner of the apartment. Oh, that table, doesn't it have a Chrysler Building feeling? Adore it. She also says she has a 'velvet problem', hence another velvet couch.

Her club chairs are even an interesting, textured velvet.

Not wanting white, she was allowed by her landlord to paint her bedroom in a toasty color. The small room seems so cozy-- with the added benefit of French doors. I can't help wondering about security? Hope there is a good alarm system!

This seems like an unusually roomy New York apartment kitchen-- and again, the light is dreamy.

Architectural Digest keeps calling her apartment "Paris-inspired", and I can see that, especially with the French Deco accents.

But overall, her style strikes me as sort of "feminine library eclectic", with her gorgeous vintage rugs, marble, velvets and other superlative fabrics, and the mix of sober antiques with little hits of modernism.

Enviable little dog, too.

It looks lovely and fitting with her taste and style. I'm glad she was able to find something she loved and it does seem quite spacious. Thank you for sharing these photos @Oznell.

I like it a lot, and her decor and furnishings go with the space so well.

That was fun to look through!

I like her velvet couches esp the green one and no.1 her cute dog!

Also the mirrors, and that pretty lamp on the console. The kitchen is so nice too with lots of light.

She looks so happy and at home in her space.

I could move in tomorrow. I especially love the "stepped" coffee table. Just my style. The one thing I don't love is the brick. I like brick on the outside of a house, not the inside.

What a beautifully decorated apartment. I especially love the couches, pillows, and decorative pieces. Greenwich village is pricey. I'm sure she's paying a pretty penny to live there!

Love, love, love what she has done with this apartment! @Oznell Three locks on the front door, one appears to be a bolt. I do not know of a New Yorker that has a security system in a rental apartment. I love how the a/c's are installed! Very clever and it does not interfere with opening the windows. The crown molding is to die for as well as the floors.

The apartment itself is fabulous and had such potential. The decor, other than the rugs and a few other elements is, to me, unfortunate.

@Citrine1 It is a beautiful apartment. I did not think that SNL cast members made a ton of money. Maybe she has a second job or is getting some help with the rent.

I just googled SNL salaries. It seems the newest cast members (the rookies) make about $7,000 per episode. The more seasoned members make between. $15,000 and $25,000 per episode.

What an interesting apartment with a wonderful visual flow from one rich area to another!

I am in love with that green couch as well; that entire view of the room has a wonderful flow! I would love to see the rest of the painting above the couch! I love the coffee table as well!

The fire place and the tall mirror are wonderful in the main area! The second fireplace and mirror are wonderful too across from that unique coffee table. I see the Chrysler building as well!

Her color flow is excellent; although, I would have done the second couch in navy or deep purple.

Oznell, thank you so much for posting this.

I love the space and everything in it and about it. Is loving velvet too much a problem? Nope, not for me.

I love white in a bedroom but am surprised how much I love the color. Your descriptions including "toasty" and table with a "chrysler building" feeling were perfect. I covet that table. The hardwood floors and beautiful windows and lighting are amazing.

My favorite is the last picture. Love, love the lamp, artwork, table and of course the lovely dog.

I only started watching SNL last year after many years of absence. Chloe is absolutely hysterical and she is a dead on mimic. Check out the video of her as Jennifer Coolidge, it is incredible.

Very well done apartment..love the brick.

The only thing I personally would change is the art and some of the throw pillows...not much in this apartment to dislike.
