YES another Jonathan Adler post. SORRY.
GQ's Adam Rapoport goes from showroom to studio to visit with NYC power couples, Simon Doonan and Jonathan Adler and Kate and Andy Spade.
After meeting Simon at Barney's New York and Jonny at his JA Headquarters, Adam heads to their Greenwich Village
apartment. Adam finds the boys do really practice what they preach; live a better life through design.
(If you are strapped for time, at the very least watch the apartment tour. The Michael Jackson ceramic bust will make it worth your while!)
Moving right along Adam visits the next NYC Power Couple. Andy and Kate Spade have an incredible home in Southampton, as well as their full time home on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. Their style is amazing. It's very "lived in luxury", a combination of art gallery and antique graveyard. AND Did you know that Andy Spade is the brother of David Spade???
Andy also takes Adam to see a few of his current projects. One of which is an old classic looking liquor store/bar that Andy has transformed into a JCREW Men's store.
The amount of inspiration I've gotten from watching these interviews is insane. I've got at least 20 ideas brewing currently. My imaginary apartment is going to be FAB.U.LOUS.
Adam's series Style Innovators has many more fascinating interviews/home tours. Check them out!
