Full Episode: 5 Bright & Stylish Homes in New York City & Los Angeles | Open House TV

Full Episode: 5 Bright & Stylish Homes in New York City & Los Angeles | Open House TV

Ready to step into more gorgeous luxury residences in New York and California? Join Open House host Sara Gore for a tour of five spacious homes located on both the East and West Coast!

Kicking things off: Dramatic 360-degree views of Manhattan (including the Empire State Building and Statue of Liberty), two private wraparound terraces, exclusive elevator access, 12.5-foot high ceilings, a lavish great room with a two-sided gas fireplace, an elegant library with expansive glass walls, a spacious media room perfect for enjoying a game of pool or hosting a cozy movie night with friends and family, a custom kitchen with natural oak cabinetry and 15-foot island, and plenty of closet space. Is there anything this 6,300-square-foot penthouse, located at the top of 551 West 21st Street, doesn’t offer? Experience more of this impressive 4-bedroom residence via a tour by none other than Frances Katzen.

Next up: Levik Stephan shows viewers around 1443 Devlin Dr. in Los Angeles, California. Perched in the Hollywood Hills above the famed Sunset Strip, this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom architectural abode (designed by Harry Gesner in the 1960s) contains 6,500 square feet of signature design flourishes of midcentury modern glamour, exposed natural wood beams, private screening room with a temperature-controlled section for wine, voluminous bedroom suites, a pocketed bar at the corner of the property that leads into a sunken living (that contains a stainless steel fireplace that’s encapsulated by sleek stone and ledge for lounging) that’s as relaxing as it is lush, an outdoor mosaic pool area with cinematic views of Beverly Hills and the Pacific Ocean.

After that, we step inside the refined New York City home of Alice Chun — an architect, philanthropist, and social entrepreneur who happens to be the inventor of the SolarPuff™ and MegaPuff (collapsible and affordable solar lights designed with the principles of origami to help underserved communities). Located in Peter Cooper Village, this Gramercy apartment is full of good books, family keepsakes, and travel mementos — all while embracing an aesthetic that is modern, sleek, and natural. Much like Alice’s approach to award-winning & sustainable designs, this welcoming abode — which also acts as a living laboratory for her prototypes — encompasses beauty, wonder, and awe.

We then travel to Crestwood Hills neighborhood of Los Angeles to join Adam Blackman — co-founder of the Blackman Cruz showroom and co-author of the book ‘Beauty & Mischief: The Design Alchemy of Blackman Cruz’ — for a tour of his lovely internationally-styled home. Located in the Crestwood Hills section of the city, this renovated midcentury abode — originally designed in 1949 by architects A. Quincy Jones and Whitney R. Smith — consists of unusual and beautiful furniture pieces throughout that are great conversation starters, including: a “miracle” chandelier; vintage “Papa Bear” black leather chair that’s comfortable for curling up with a good book; bronze Gazelle-line dining table set by Dan Johnson, cinder block fireplace with a blue painting hanging over it; table compromised of 400 music records bolted together and cast; and a super rare 1967 Ford automobile bound to make any vintage car collector’s heart race extra fast.

We end the episode on a high note (quite literally) with Dana Power at a duplex penthouse located at 385 West 12th Street in New York City. Nestled on a quiet cobblestone enclave in the West Village, this 3,844-square-foot duplex penthouse boasts four bedrooms, four bathrooms, three exclusive terraces with breathtaking city vistas; loft-like proportions; a swinging wall that closes off to separate the den from the kitchen; private elevator access that leads into a double-height solarium that sets the stage for the most enchanting ambiance framing the river views right outside; rooftop oasis with a 50-foot infinity-edge lap pool, jacuzzi, grilling stations and landscaped deck; and plenty of natural light throughout (courtesy of its numerous floor-to-ceiling windows).

A Midtown Penthouse that Captures the Excitement & Glamour of NYC | Open House TV

A Midtown Penthouse that Captures the Excitement & Glamour of NYC | Open House TV

Step inside 111 West 57th St: a bespoke 3873 sq. ft. penthouse in midtown Manhattan that was designed by interior designer Rafael de Cárdenas, that captures the glamour and excitement of New York City. From the impressive foyer with its eye-catching pieces that set the stage for the dynamism of the space to the dining room featuring a frosted table held up by plasters of rock formations as a base, and from the primary bedroom with its abstracted pastoral vibe, low-profile bed to maximize the wall space, and stainless steel platform for added edge to the Great Room with its magnificent views of Central Park, transparent coffee table decorated with books and solid ceramic vases, and muted sofa with pops of lime green color that capture the natural scenery outside, this 3-bedroom residence is filled with a blend of elegant yet unexpected touches. As Cárdenas himself best puts it: “This apartment is my 1988 fantasy with its acid green and orange color palette and this view that I’m been waiting for — and it’s all hurled into the future.”

Full Show: Astounding Abodes Filled with Innovative Style | Open House TV

Full Show: Astounding Abodes Filled with Innovative Style | Open House TV

Join Open House host Sara Gore for a look inside five impeccable homes in New York and California that are filled with style, comfort, and innovative details.

First up: a stop at 111 West 57th St to tour a bespoke 3873 sq. ft. penthouse in midtown Manhattan, designed by interior designer Rafael de Cárdenas, that captures the glamour and excitement of New York City. From the impressive foyer with its eye-catching pieces that set the stage for the dynamism of the space to the dining room featuring a frosted table held up by plasters of rock formations as a base, and from the primary bedroom with its abstracted pastoral vibe, low-profile bed to maximize the wall space, and stainless steel platform for added edge to the Great Room with its magnificent views of Central Park, transparent coffee table decorated with books and solid ceramic vases, and muted sofa with pops of lime green color that capture the natural scenery outside, this 3-bedroom residence is filled with a blend of elegant yet unexpected touches. As Cárdenas himself best puts it: “This apartment is my 1988 fantasy with its acid green and orange color palette and this view that I’m been waiting for — and it’s all hurled into the future.”

Care for a visit to sunny Beverly Hills, California for a tour of 2650 Benedict Canyon Drive led by real estate agent Matt Altman? This luxurious 16,390 sq. ft. architectural compound has it all: Expansive living area flooded with natural light? ✔️ Open-floor concept that seamlessly blends indoor/outdoor elements? ✔️ Floor-to-ceiling windows with views of the surrounding mountains? ✔️ This 7 bedroom, 11-bath estate truly combines unparalleled contemporary design with state-of-the art interiors and cinematic style.

After that, we return to the East Coast for a visit to the renowned Tribeca penthouse of lighting and furniture designer Lee Broom. A fitting celebration of his innovative style and elegant aesthetic (a modernist take on classic decor), this duplex residence, which occupies the fifth and sixth floors of a historic cast iron building in downtown NYC and serves as the designer’s residence and appointment-only showroom, features an abundance of natural light, flow, and unique creations inspired by the architecture of the 3,000 sq. ft. space as well as New York City itself.

We then fly back to the West Coast to join interior designer Tamarra Younis (founder of Union of Art) at one of her recent projects: a mid-century home nestled in the hills of Studio City — that she transformed for Foo Fighters bassist Nate Mendel and his family — that is as delightfully comfortable as it is creative with its custom-made furniture, bold pops of color, and collection of personal and vintage decor pieces.

Finally, we find ourselves in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn for a visit with architect Simon Arnolds. Arnolds was tasked with renovating a top-floor duplex in a former Romanesque mansion. He opened up the space to give it warmth and reflect modern sensibilities (namely, by removing the dividing walls, exposing the ceiling structure, and staining the exposed wood with black pigment and the steel a very dark gray), and in the process, uncovered plenty of of the original architectural details that he seamlessly integrated into contemporary design.
