Looking for a very in-vogue NYC listing? For that, this SoHo stunner owned by fashion designer Phillip Lim is a sure thing. Lim just listed his minimalist yet artistic full-floor home for $8.5 million or as a rental for $45,000/month.
The designer, who excels at putting out effortlessly cool ready-to-wear collections, created his downtown pad as well. “Phillip lived in the home and designed it himself,” per a PR rep for Compass. Two units were carefully combined to forge the 3,500-square-foot residence, which boasts a tidy two bedrooms and two bathrooms.
Listing agent Esteban Gomez of Compass went on to share, “The loft is an extension of Phillip’s incredible design talent and his natural ability to create special interior spaces, and give them a real sense of life. The loft feels like an oasis, calm and serene, it embraces you with interesting layers and natural materials that ground you. The home has so many beautiful and tactile layers, it reveals fresh new perspectives with each step you take.”
Indeed, you can’t exactly label the light-filled haven with one element or style. The wood details, clean lines, stone choices, and open floorplan create a dynamic experience that is energizing and never boring, yet equally relaxing. Not the easiest feat to pull off, but if anyone can make a collection of spaces eclectic but cohesive, it’s a fashion designer.
For those interested, you can try it on for size by renting or dive right in with an offer.
