Before becoming a fashion designer, the American Lisa Perry collected with passion the vintage couture and the art of the sixties. A mother passion for fashion itself, an industrial textile installed in Chicago, its hours painter, father probably shaped his taste. "Home, remembers, everyone working in color, fabric, design..." "What's more normal if Lisa Perry enters mode and fate graduated from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York." In his studio in SoHo, she creates today fabrics and clothing, without away those years style to which she remains faithful. For its clothing lines, she feels close to the modernity of an André Courrèges or a Pierre Cardin, and does never concealing his admiration for Audrey Hepburn, whose appearance always appeared to him, provides, "close to perfection". His taste in decoration are little different.
As its collections of clothing, Lisa Perry New York apartment is the paradise of bright colours. "I love the primary colours, acknowledges." They remind me the great artists that I have always loved, Piet Mondrian, Robert Indiana, Ellsworth Kelly. I have a real aversion to colors that are not pure. "And to highlight these vivid hues, Lisa chose to paint some parts of its interior white." Thus, in the House, the colourful canvas of Martial Raysse, table simple and sweet, there is incredibly value. Other parts of the House are also placed under the sign of free colours: a room is yellow, the Office, red and black, one of the firms of multicolor toilet.

Lisa furniture consists of original pieces from the 1960s and 1970s supplemented by contemporary creations and furniture custom. Their common point They are true works of art than simple tables, seats or storage furniture. Difficult in Lisa Perry to distinguish what is strictly functional which is the creation, what is needed of what is superfluous. "I can pass me, says, except the beauty". In the end, the atmosphere of the vast entrance hall decorated with a lithograph of Vasarely and a work of Lichtenstein, the grand salon or the terraces dominate to the Queensboro Bridge, Roosevelt Island, would look like almost to that of a Museum of contemporary art... up to the kitchen, decorated with works of Andy Warhol. In the most humble of the recesses of the House, it places precious and colored pieces. Its rich collection of pop art includes works by painters among the most important of the second half of the 20th century: Vasarely, Roy Lichtenstein, Tom Wesselmann, Martial Raysse, Claes Oldenburg, for example in the 1960s. For the most recent period, Lisa Perry has a weakness for Jeff Koons and Takashi Murakami.
If the creative House looks like, by the quality of the pieces on display in a Museum of contemporary art, it is however not frozen. In the library, an accumulation of objects of the 1960s and 1970s provides an overview of decorative tastes and musical preferences of Lisa Perry. Next to a Wire cone, plexiglas and leather of Verner Panton Chair is, for example, Blowing in the Wind, a poster of Martin Sharp (1967) Bob Dylan and a photo of Hulton Getty also representing the singer (1965). In the same room, with original photos of the sixties that evoke America's and the music of those years there (two women at the counter of Bruce Davidson dated 1962 and Birmingham of Charles Moore of 1963), alongside a work in the Op art of the British Bridget Riley style (1964) or even a gleaming 1960s electric guitar.
The dressing of Lisa Perry is just as impressive from a historical point of view. The designer has, in particular, a priceless collection of clothing and handbags, worthy to be featured in a Museum of fashion. When she remembers the transformation of its home site, and attention to result in its development the expression of his universe, it only refers to the pleasure felt and leaving aside all inevitable hazards in a large project: "This has been extremely nice to see materialize my dreams, to see little by little my ideas turn into reality."
