Listings: Take a Look Inside Phillip Lim's Dreamy Soho Abode
The designer’s downtown NYC loft sees masterful symmetry in its design, offering the perfect space for solo serenity or seamless entertainment.
Hypebeast can officially confirm Phillip Lim‘s elevated, refined taste expands to his expansive New York City apartment. The designer and founder of the eponymous label resides in a full-floor loft that sits on a romantic cobblestone-lined street in the city’s Soho neighborhood, and the designer’s residence – listed by @TheCreativesAgent for $8.5 million USD – is serenely symmetrical, intentional and infused with his eye for casual elegance.
Lim’s two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath apartment is a combination of two units in the handsome five-story elevator building, totaling 3,500 sq. ft. Nine-foot tall windows offer picturesque views of the city, and discreet, hidden landing doors provide the perfect escape to such.
But what’s most notable about Lim’s spacious loft is its symmetry in its design; the apartment boasts an equal number of windows at each end of the home, with a statement matte limestone radiator positioned in the middle. The floor-to-ceiling Nero Tunisia marble cube is another striking statement piece, placed between the salon and dining room. Guests can enter via a key-locked elevator to the home’s private landing, following the captivating hand-carved, smoked white oak doors into a private study, fit with custom birch bookshelves. With a private terrace at one end and a sleek kitchen at the other, Lim’s residence was designed with a smooth flow of movement in mind.
