ABOUT
The de Kooning Studio offers unique and artistic contributions worthy of preservation. Once faced with demolition, the former home of Dutch Abstract Expressionist, Willem de Kooning provides a 3,500 square foot Renaissance-inspired storefront with original moldings and artwork from 1901. White and gold accented columns 14-feet high corresponds with white exposed pipework, light fixtures and ceiling fans. A balcony overlooks the ornamental main floor. During the day, natural light beacons through large floor to ceiling windows. The open layout makes it adaptable to any nighttime setting. There is an additional 5,000 square feet in the basement. Through the rear exit of the vast retail space is a 3,000 square foot outdoor extension. It features a ground level entrance on East 12th Street. Private parking is also available. Freight and passenger elevators are accessible on this level. High ceilings with exposed pipes and ductwork throughout the alley. Enclosed by security gates, the alleyway ensures privacy needed for undisrupted filming. Another component is the multi-purposeful open courtyard. Spacious rooftop access of 4,500 square feet grants unrestricted views of Broadway, excellent for a cityscape backdrop. Multiple staircases and single fire escape used for production shoots. On the third floor is an eclectic apartment with hand-painted ceilings at 12-feet high, preserved hand-crafted moldings at 1,200 square feet. Rounded archways, white-french doors and circular windows contribute to the abstract fenestration of the apartment. The third floor includes an-all white loft serving as a blank canvas. The open interior possesses ample natural light from large windows and 12-feet high decorative white ceilings. Colorful inlaid flooring contrasting with black & white checkered tiles. Eccentricity and luxury are successfully integrated within the de Kooning studio.
