A kaleidoscopic Upper East Side apartment that looks more like an art installation than a living space is back on the market – and now comes with a $2 million markdown.

As the New York Post first reported, Apryl Miller’s technicolor home atop the 29 th floor of the Siena at 188 East 76 th Street has returned to the market with a reduced asking price of $6.75 million. The vibrant, full-floor condo was originally listed in 2024 for $8.75 million, according to Street Easy records.

Miller, an artist, poet, and jewelry designer, bought the 4,076-square-foot unit with her former husband in 1998. She took full ownership in 2002 and spent the next two decades transforming the sprawling five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bathroom space into what she calls a “very special home” for her daughters.

“I always knew I couldn’t keep it forever,” Miller told The Post. “It’s an art installation. Art doesn’t last forever.”

Indeed, the home is more gallery than apartment – with paint-splattered floors in the style of Jackson Pollock, hand-tiled bathrooms, vibrant wall colors, and custom Lucite-legged kitchen furniture designed for children to crawl under. One bedroom was even repurposed as a miniature stage for performances, while another once housed what Miller dubbed the “chair museum,” a collection of her sculptural seating inspired by textiles and fashion.

“My girls liked being underneath the table with their little toys,” she recalled. “I didn’t want white walls. Color is rejuvenating, and colors have souls.”

The result is a one-of-a-kind living environment that has captured the attention of design lovers and media outlets alike. Over the years, the home has been featured in Amazing Interiors on Netflix, MTV’s Teen Cribs, Open House New York tours, and numerous print publications.

Despite the dramatic interiors, the condo offers traditional luxury perks as well: a private elevator landing, floor-to-ceiling windows with panoramic views from Central Park to the East River, a 28-foot-long living room, and a cerulean-hued eat-in kitchen.

The master suite includes two walk-in closets, a raised sitting area, and a striking skyline-facing bath. The Siena, a full-service white-glove condo building, also offers a gym, children’s playroom, furnished terrace, and 24-hour doorman service – all rare amenities west of Third Avenue in Lenox Hill.

Miller said the decision to sell wasn’t easy, but with her daughters grown, the whimsical space has outgrown its original purpose. “It’s too big now,” she admitted. “It was a magical home for raising children, but it’s time.”

Though the furnishings aren’t included in the sale, they are available for purchase separately. And while Miller has accepted that the next owner might not preserve her colorful vision, she’s at peace with the possibility of change.

“I’m OK with having the whole place gutted,” she told The Post. “I know I’ll be really sad when it’s actually sold. I’ll cry later.”

Listing agents Eileen Foy and Ana Ozashvili of Compass are marketing the home. They did not return the Post’s request for comment.
