Willy Wonka House - Tribeca, New York

This six-floor, 15,500-square-foot warehouse built in 1915, does not 
match everyone’s idea of a perfect family home. 
This is the kind of home where you imagine Willy Wonka to live, or some other out-
there character who throws crazy dinner parties that are talked about months 
afterwards.

Esta moradia de seis andares de 15.500 metros quadrados, construído em 1915, não corresponde a todos como ideia de uma casa de família perfeita.
Este é o tipo de casa, onde se pode imaginar Willy Wonka para viver, ou alguma outra personagem que dá festas loucas que se fala ainda um mês depois.




 A chandelier made of ping-pong balls, a self portrait by chocolate artist Vik Muniz 

and a pair of sheep sculptures grazing on a fuzzy green carpet are just some of the 
crazy details in this home, that according to the designer and owners, was also 
designed to be easy to care for and live in for a family with young kids. One thing 
is certain; the kids will not describe their home as ordinary or boring.

Um lustre feito de bolas de ping-pong, um auto-retrato de chocolate do artista VikMuniz e um par de esculturas de pastejo de ovinos em um tapete verde fuzzy são apenas alguns dos detalhes loucos desta casa, que, segundo o designer e os proprietários, também foi concebidos para serem fáceis de cuidar e viver em uma família com crianças e jovens. Uma coisa é certa, as crianças não iram descrever a sua casa como normal ou chata.

  1. This home might not be for everyone but it's perfect for me. I don't mind living there, not a bit and I actually love some of the designs. I really liked the striped wall bedroom, the dining room, the work area/ home office area, the two quirky orange and white chairs and the walls behind them, those sheep and the rug. Oh, so many inspirations in one post! Thanks for sharing!

    By the way, wonderful blog. I am now following.
