{design} the East Village duplex of Brad Goldfarb and Alfredo Paredes


When two incredibly stylish gay men decide to make a home together, you best believe it's gonna be the fiercest space on the block {or in the co-op}.  This definitely rings true for the "are you kidding me" duplex of this creative power couple {Brad's a writer; Alfredo - executive VP and chief creative officer (natch) for Polo Ralph Lauren (double natch)}.  Not only is their duplex crazy huge, but it's also full of everything I didn't even know I needed til now {I can't believe I never thought to use an easel to display my TV}.  Thanks to Architechtural Digest, we can all lust over this uber chic East Village wonderland...

The duo collaborated with Michael Neumann (worth every penny)
large-scale work on paper by Richard Serra, and the (lg) tv on an easel that I'm dying over 
painting by Pat Steir


Sid, the couple’s Labrador retriever (who I bet is more well trained than even the Dog Whisperer's pups)

...and we also have a terrace

bluestone countertops from Alan Court & Assoc



armoire repurposed into a desk...and Sid
