A New Yorker turned her one-bedroom apartment into a colorful dream space with 'dopamine decor'

• Maitri Mody moved into a one-bedroom apartment in Brooklyn, New York, in February. 
• She decorated the apartment with "dopamine decor," filling it with things that make her happy.
• Paint, stick-and-peel wallpaper, and light fixtures made all the difference in her rental space.

As Maitri Mody settled into her new apartment, she knew she needed to put her stamp on it.

Mody, 42, is a content creator and interior decorator based in New York City.
