My perfect way to waste time

Well I guess we all share the love of Bang & Olufsen products.  However we all have different tastes in many other things.  This is a link to a condo project in New York that I think really meets my needs except the price.  Notice the Audi A8 in the video.  It probably has a B&O sound system.

Strange ... the movie implies one bay on a floor that has two apartments ... ("see the "ensuite sky garage" tab)

There are 16 apartments but only 14 have a garage.  Also one of the penthouses occupies 2 floors.  I guess not all of the wealthy in New York have a car.  

We need a car like a fish needs a bicycle.   Anyhoo, Domenico Dolce (Dolce & Gabbana) just scooped up 2 of the penthouses for $29 mil. 

Only 2 left so hurry..

Its great to see some of these properties and I am intrigued to know who lives in them. Ever since I saw the recent TV program in the UK about Fern Cotton meeting Paris Hilton, I have been amazed at how some people live. Her wardrobes (clothes and shoes) are bigger and better furnished than most high street shops, she has an indoor night club built into her home and has spent 1 million dollars building a fully furnished Penthouse Suite for her dogs! There is of course much more. The mind boggles, truly. But I do like her a lot and admire her achievements. She is a smart woman.

look at this one if you want to see some b&o:

and here's the same house without fisheye lens:

Very nice house indded as many said, the furnitures are "very special"...

For that price, I would resell this one and build my own house (or get a loft), designed by a reputed designer. All furnitures would come from italian brands like Cassina, B&B italia, Pallucco, Living Divani with B&0 everywhere. Nice dream isn't it ? 🙂

Cheers,

VIewing homes and finding B&O is similar to my sickness of spotting B&O in movies or TV shows.  Just saw "Taken" last night and of course in the Paris flat was the standard BS9000 and BL 8000.  Kinda funny.... in one scene the girl appears to touch the glass on the BS 9000 and it starts playing the CD at full volume, must be a feature on the newer 9000's😁
