Reduced, elegant and through and through in the style of the designer: In the Chelsea Gallery District in Manhattan, Calvin Klein once set up his office space – now the penthouse changed the owner for more than three million dollars.
The property is located on the 18th floor of the Chelsea Arts Tower and was designed in 2006 by the architect Richard Gluckman on behalf of Klein. A spacious work area, a reception, a kitchen and a 39 square meter terrace with a view of the Hudson River, Hudson Yards and the skyline of Manhattan are distributed over around 307 square meters.
Calvin Klein loves it simply and elegant
Klein’s handwriting is noticeable in every detail: three meters high ceilings, room-high glass walls, polished concrete floors-and as a spectacular center, a 7.3 meter long metal conference table, which could only be brought into the rooms with the help of a crane.
