While the '90s supermodel heydays are long gone, someone has the chance to live like one now as Linda Evangelista's former New York City penthouse suite has hit the market.
The model used to live in West Chelsea's The Spears Building, and the unit is certainly fit for those with an affinity for luxury (quiet or loud). At 4,022 square feet, it's a sprawling property with exposed brick, polished concrete floors, soaring ceilings that reach up to 13 feet tall, and skylights throughout. Most notably, it features a predominantly black and white color scheme – I typically find this palette overdone, but it looks brand new in this space.
As far as technical aspects go, the apartment is listed for $8,195,000 and includes four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a spacious patio, and state-of-the-art appliances. Let's take a closer look.
White furniture really makes its mark in this space, and this begins with a wavy, modern desk, perched in an Art Deco-esque nook with marble walls.
The dining room, meanwhile, benefits from the many skylights in the property; the round, wood table, receives a warm glow from the natural light, and pairs perfectly with the wood floors.
The living room, meanwhile, takes a monochromatic approach to the decor, with a luxe, white sofa, fuzzy, white chairs, and white painted walls giving the room a sleek and contemporary feel.
