They came from eras unknown to me — the late 1960s and early '70s, where bright colors and unusual shapes and a kind of unabashed exuberance reigned . I drank them in, the same way I did my parents' oversize National Geographic atlas, fascinated by the hints of faraway lands I found therein. As an adult, I've inherited some of these books. My favorite among them is House & Garden's Complete Guide to Interior Decoration (1970), which has somehow managed to transition with me from Texas to a rather tiny apartment in New York's West Village. Recently, while perusing it, I noticed that it seemed less wild than I remembered — but also, surprisingly, that there were quite a few interiors there that had stood the test of time — and even a few design lessons that still have resonance today.

We love New York business. Here are 25 reasons why

1. If you can make it here… New York has long been the ultimate testing ground for businesses. But the city’s population density also makes it an important laboratory for startups, especially in today’s on-demand economy. Food- delivery pioneer Seamless survived the dot-com crash, paving the way for the arrival of meal-kit services such as Blue Apron and Plated a decade later.
