Notable New Yorker and New York magazine design editor, Wendy Goodman, shares five of her favorite spots in New York City.

Since the start of her career, Wendy Goodman has covered both the fashion and design scene at noted publications, like Harper’s Bazaar, New York Times Magazine, House and Garden, and most recently at New York magazine as their Design Editor since 2007. She’s appeared on countless televisions shows including NBC’s Open House, Good Morning America, Ellen’s Design Challenge, The Insider, NY1, and WNYC, along with hosting various design talks around NYC. Goodman is noted for recognizing trends and finding up-and-coming talent, as well as documenting some of the most memorable homes of design lovers around the world. Those decades spent collecting stories on the private homes she’s ventured inside have led to her just released book, May I Come In": Discovering the World in Other People’s Houses, where she shares 70 of them.

The minute I climb the steps and enter the great hall I feel better, and no matter what show I am visiting I stop in to see my old friends in the Egyptian galleries.
