Welcome to 'Scheighborhood'
Palazzo Chupi
Julian Schanbel's latest
art project has taken the form
of a 12 story apartment building
in Manhattan's West Village.
Filmmaker, now architect?
How to describe 'Chupi'...
1. pink, sandstone, "Pompeii red" layer cake.
2. neo-Moorish, arched-window monument to ego.
3. "Baby-Boomer Bohemian Bourgeois"_living
4. ...a monster?
It's so bizarre that I like it.

those photos are so beautiful! clicking around i just noticed that they are from robert polidori. that's certainly someone who can make any place look wonderful ;)
interesting read altogether: aparently people do not like the color of the house. i would love to look at that around here all day, i think the color is the best thing about it.
thank you for sharing!
i LOVE THE POOL, AND THE ATMOSPHERE IN THE PHOTOGRAPHS!
good inspiration for my bath design work today
but what can't he do? :)

I think the color is fabulous. New Yorkers can use a shot of color in a sea of gray and brown.
Love your blog.
I see your 2001 reference and I raise you Bill Murray from Rushmore jumping into the SchnabelPool/
I adore that pool!!
I want to swim in that thing.
I like it too! xxooLynnda
