Full Episode: Bold, Eye-Catching Design in New Orleans and New York City | Open House TV

Open House host Sara Gore takes us on a tour of several reimagined homes from NOLA in Louisiana to Nolita in New York City, and introduces this week’s episode from within a dramatic, 4-bedroom duplex penthouse located in a cast-iron building in Tribeca that features over 5,000 sq. ft. of luxury living and is designed for open-air enjoyment day and night.

We kick off the festivities with a trip to New Orleans to visit the bold, colorful, and vibrant home of production designer Hannah Beachler (and her adorable pup Miss Maxine, a.k.a. “the queen of the castle”), who won the 2019 Oscar for Best Production Design for “Black Panther” and has worked on a variety of acclaimed films, including “Fruitvale Station” and “Creed.” This 103-year-old Creole cottage built in 1920 is painted black on the outside (hence the nickname Black Daydream), and inside features a cinematic design aesthetic that pays homage to the gracious splendor of the Big Easy and captures a sense of modernity in something old (as displayed by the black fireplace in her bedroom and the steam punk-inspired kitchen, which includes a bird mural, cypress-wood shelves, and Industrial Age iron-and-glass cabinet guard doors on a rail). From the entry hallway that serves as a visual progression of her career and life to the elegant yet whimsical enclave that’s separated by a credenza (traditionally, Creole cottages did not have dining rooms) that’s perfect for entertaining guests, Hannah’s home features an overall design that focuses on texture (e.g. a South African beaded chandelier that juxtaposes the Victorian state of the chairs in the dining area), color-blocking full of saturated hues, and Afrofuturism art (including a nature motif and African masks from the movie “Miles Ahead”) that not only tells a story, but retells how ancestral history is told.

After that, we journey over to midtown to explore the New York City home of Leesa Rowland — cult film star, animal activist, and author of “The Charisma Factor: Unlock the Secrets of Magnetic Charm and Personal Influence in Your Life.” Leesa wanted her living space to be a reflection of her vivacious personality and the things she loves, which begins with an entranceway that makes an impression and features custom gold doors and black & white marble floors. From the bright entertaining area that’s a toast to Hollywood glam (and features a bar, lounge area with swivel chairs, a stone fireplace that serves as the focal point, and needlework pillows made by her mother) to the dining room that includes a prominent chandelier, an Armani table, gorgeous velvet Jonathan Adler chairs, and antique mirrors that add depth, to a walk-in closet complete with beautiful couture, vanity table, and views for days, this apartment is as comfortable as it is fabulous.

We then swing by 551 West 21st Street in West Chelsea for a tour of apartment 14A led by Calli Sarkesh. Conceived and designed by architecture firm Foster & Partners, this 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath apartment is filled with natural light and is elegant yet functional. It features 4271 sq. ft. of fine living space that fuses a classic aesthetic with a modern one and includes custom millwork, a contemporary layout, herringbone oak floors, an elegant gallery; a 70-ft long great room that serves as the centerpiece of the place with an intimate library at the end; an exquisite kitchen designed for social gatherings with integrated oak cabinetry & cozy breakfast nook; a powder room; a primary suite that serves as a relaxing, pin-drop-quiet sanctuary with a wood-panel walk-in closet and private spa area; and best of all: perimeter seating throughout with stunning views of the Statue of Liberty.

Last but certainly not least, we drop by by interior designer Melanie Morris’s pied-à-terre in Nolita, which she shares with her husband and three teenage sons. This open-concept, functional home features earthy tones, furniture from the Kenmare collection (including an oatmeal-hued sofa, a dark stone coffee table, and a credenza with ambrosia maple tones and dark fluted wood that was designed specifically for the apartment), and a playful sense of design as best captured by the ceramic overhead light fixture in the dining room and the calming pop of color in the master suite (which includes ombre-glazed walls, a vintage light fixture from the 1960s, views of the World Trade Center, and soft, curved pieces with brass accents). Every space not only feels unique through unexpected touches & careful delineation (as evidenced by the rug from her Pop Collection that separates the living room into its own entity), but also allows its residents to remain connected to each other throughout the day.

Full Episode: “La Dolce Vita” Captured in 5 Homes in NYC, Connecticut & California | Open House TV

Full Episode: "La Dolce Vita" Captured in 5 Homes in NYC, Connecticut & California | Open House TV

Join Open House host Sara Gore for another mesmerizing installment of style, refinement, and pizzazz on both the East and West Coast!

We kick off this week’s episode inside classic New York City townhouse located on the Upper East Side. This 5500 sq. ft. space was built in 1891 and features a Renaissance Revival facade, high ceilings, arched doorways, and stunning millwork. We then head over to join agent Maria Manuche about twenty blocks away — just steps off Park Avenue — for a tour of another beautiful NYC townhouse that radiates the ethos of a mansion and preserves its original architectural details while also incorporating modern conveniences. Built in 1879, this 120 E 71st St residence also features stately limestone facade, sweeping staircase, 12 ft. ceilings, marble floors, and a modern 3-year renovation that consists of a large stained glass window, gas-burning fireplace, private garden ideal for dining al fresco, bedroom with a south-facing terrace, and a generous living space (five floors of 6600 sq. ft. to be exact).

We then fly over to the West Coast to Venice, California to visit the airy, sun-drenched, and music-filled home of interior designer and television personality Breegan Jane, who brought the entire Marina del Rey property, which was built around the late 1970s, down to its studs. With its customs finishes (including a kitchen that features the original hood vent, cooking range with silver-and-gold detailing, and a help-yourself beverage station that’s wonderful for entertaining), personal touches (including a central deejay-ing booth, grand piano, glass gates that are child and pet-friendly to ensure a worry-free environment, and hybrid playroom and educational area that’s imperfect by design to accommodate the creative learning process of two young children) and sleek, contemporary aesthetic, this nearly 3000 sq. ft. space is the epitome of chic comfort.

After that glorious trip, we head to another Upper East Side home: this time around, a delightful pied-à-terre designed by Tina Ramchandani. Her clients were inspired by a trip to Italy and expressed a desire for a space that captured an effervescent “la dolce vita” aesthetic; and Tina brought their dream to life with her relaxing yet luxurious aesthetic. From the welcoming foyer that features custom wallpaper that carries throughout the space, commissioned artwork that give the walls an extra pop, and a mobile light fixture that can be pointed in any direction, to the living room that includes a dynamic seating element to mimic a salon-style floor plan, curved furniture, multiple tables, and a rotating picture gallery crafted from mixed materials, this Manhattan getaway is teeming with unique artisanal decor.

Next up, we find ourselves in New Canaan, Connecticut where talented interior designer Corey Damen Jenkins takes us on a tour of his client’s elegant home that he revitalized with some flair. We begin in the living room that is the epitome of “comfortable meets “stylish with its off-the-beaten-path wall brackets hanging over the lavender linen sofa (which serves as the anchor), lumbar pillows for some added energy and depth, and cocktail table dipped in a white lacquer paint that brings a lovely juxtaposition against the furniture. We also venture to other rooms in the home and come to discover that it’s full of traditional details with a fun, fresh spin, including a fashion-forward breakfast nook that features oversized lighting, a farmhouse table that has been with the family for years, and classic chairs that have been remixed with a colorful pattern play.

We finish this week’s episode by heading downtown to 483 West 22nd Street, right in the heart of Chelsea (approximately one block from the High Line), to join agent Benjamin Glazer for a tour of a newly renovated NYC townhouse. Built in 1901, this space has been modernized into a home full of natural light and gorgeous architectural attributes. With extraordinary attention to detail — including marble countertops in the kitchen that were handcrafted in the UK, a parlor with high ceilings and open-concept floor plan, skylight that illuminates the grand staircase, living room with a historic fireplace mantle and direct access to private garden, a sweeping primary bathroom that features a vanity clad in Belgian bluestone and bathtub comprised of Amazonian stone, and an office that faces Clement Clarke Moore Park — it’s evident no expense was spared.
