Walk and Talk at a Blueground Bespoke Penthouse on Billionaires' Row

Ever wonder what it's like to live on billionaires Rome or what goes into designing and furnishing those larger than life apartments. Well, Blue Ground is a property rental company that offers fully furnished apartments and they just launched a fully shop herbal penthouse apartment. Manitoba had the chance to check it all out right in the heart of Manhattan's billionaire's row. So here's a look at her walking talk with blue grounds, global Director of interior design, Jessica McCarthy Jessica, thank you so much for making time. Yes, of course. We are in the heart of billionaires row in new york city. Tell me about blue ground and how the process works. So just imagine you are moving to a new city, you are remodeling your home, you're moving for work. Blue Ground makes it super easy to arrive with only your so suitcase and have a fully equipped apartment ready to go. Blue Ground bespoke is a new initiative with the company. Tell me a little bit more about it. So standard long term business rentals tend to lack design inspiration and so with blue ground bespoke, we are really aiming to create and elevated over the top design for our guests. So we're gonna go inside right now into one of these amazing apartments. I'm really excited. Yes, our first ever blue ground bespoke. Alright, let's take a look Jessica. We are in the penthouses properties. Absolutely gorgeous. Isn't it amazing. Tell me more about it. So we have over 11,000 apartments globally and this is the first of its kind. Tell me a little bit about the furniture you picked and the aesthetic that you're going for with your clientele. So for our bespoke clientele, we really wanted to create a more elevated design experience. So a lot of the furnishings that we chose are more high end. So, for example, this is an amazing musoni wallpaper and it's something that we wouldn't ever use in our typical standard blue ground apartments. So it really sets this apartment apart from our standard units. What tips do you have for people who might want to find their own unique style when they're staying on a gorgeous property like this one? So I would say aside from scale, there really aren't that many rules when it comes to interior design. And so to really lean into the things that you love, whether that be color, texture, furniture styles and not really pay attention to the rules, Tell me a little bit about this property. How many bedrooms, bathrooms does it have? So we have five bedrooms, 8.5 bathrooms, two decks, and two living rooms, two kitchens and two dining rooms. This keeps going and just keeps going. So, what are the must haves when you're creating a property like this? And of course the vibe that goes along with it for the clientele. So it's really utilizing the space, the best that we can. And so for this particular space, the architecture itself is very 19 eighties post modern and we could have really, you know, tried to um steer away from that, but instead we really chose to lean into it. Why? So actually, the 19 eighties postmodern era is having a huge moment right now in the design industry. So we were like, here we are in this 19 eighties, nineties style apartment, let's fully lean in because it's really what's trending, what do you think the future of furniture buying will look like Jessica? So there's this really new try before you buy a model right now. So we've actually partnered with this amazing brand Minoan where you can actually purchase anything from this apartment that you like and bring it home with you. What's the feedback you're getting from your clientele when they walk into these beautiful properties? So they obviously are wow properties from the scale to the amenities, to the neighborhoods, to the views. So we're only receiving amazing positive feedback and a big special thanks right there to our Manitoba and Blue grounds, Global Director of Interior Design Jessie McCarthy on their walk and talk
