Wow - that view! Along two walls! And in NYC!

I am so envious. Not hatin'. Just envious.

Those windows look... dangerous.

They look fragile, and like you could fall through them...

I would LOVE a view like this. Bet it is even more fabulous at night. Blue velvet curtains....haven't seen that for awhile....and think I really like the return of the idea.

I wonder if he really does spend "hours" in the bathtub working... tepid water, pruny skin... waterlogged designs. This does not sound fun.
