In my next life, I would like to come back as a New Yorker. I want the jam-packed weekends, the delicious street food, the frenetic pace of life but most of all, I want the sprawling Manhattan apartment. (Just in case you are wondering how I would afford this, I will be rich and famous… of course)! I’ve got an idea of what I want, and I have to say it comes pretty close to the apartment I will be showing you today. Writer Brad Goldfarb and Alfredo Paredes—executive vice president and chief retail creative officer at Ralph Lauren—collaborated with architect Michael Neumann on the renovation of their beautiful Manhattan duplex. I fell instantly for the abundant rich, natural timber combined with the enormous steel framed windows. And of course who could resist that terrace and those adorable pooches?

So impressive. I love those arch windows in the first photo, and that free standing bath, and (of course) the pooches. x

The windows in that first photo took my breath away! Can't you just feel the air? Amazing!
ReplyDeleteWow such a rich and yummy space. Those windows are my favorite and are on my wish list to have a place with arched steel windows. I think I will join you in my next life and be a new Yorker too!

I wouldn't mind being a rich New Yorker now? Or anytime actually?
ReplyDeleteIn my next life too! I'll join you!
ReplyDeleteYeah who wouldn't want to live there in a place like that! Looks like a dream!
ReplyDeleteThis is definitely a home that you would not expect in NYC..We'll have to keep playing the lottery Meghan!
ReplyDeleteWow!!! In my next life I would be happy to come back as the cleaner of that very apartment ;-)
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely week xx
Alright, I will live vicariously through these pics too. That's one of my wishes...... Living in Manhattan, with weekends always full, some of which involve summering in the Hamptons. Ahhhh one can wish.
ReplyDeleteI'm totally with you! I LOVE that apartment...I hadn't seen the outdoor patio - now I love it even more!
ReplyDeleteI love the rustic flair in the midst of the city skyline! Such a grand balance!
ReplyDeleteWhere can apply for being a rich New Yorker with you in my next life?!! I don't want the famous part, I just need enough money to have a gorgeous flat with great view. That's all I ask for.
ReplyDeleteBest. Bathroom. Ever.
ReplyDeleteWhat is going on with that silvery mirrored tub?! SWOONING.
ReplyDeleteIt is insanely gorgeous with those to die for windows!! Love the dining room table with the tolix chairs and the freestanding tub...fabulous!!
ReplyDeleteWow - yep, a total dream home! Even I would love to live in New York for a bit, even though I'm not normally a big city girl :)
ReplyDeleteLife etc
I want the home PLUS the dog! Their outdoor space is my favourite. This is such a great find.
ReplyDeleteThis place is lovely and yip I would definitely like to live in New York for a while too

Just reading your few first words I was laughing. I would take any place in NYC. But this is is special, that bathroom is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI want to be a filthy rich New Yorker too ;) I'd kill for the roof terrace alone. The rest of the space is gorgeous too...
