Rent a colourful Bushwick carriage house by Jorge Pardo

Jorge Pardo isn’t afraid of colour. The Cuban-American artist and sculptor explores the intersection of painting, design, and sculpture in his brightly coloured works, and his former Bushwick carriage house home is a liveable artwork.

Pardo acquired the carriage house at 290 Bleecker Street in 2015 and renovated it from top to bottom, installing a tomato-red staircase that gave the Bushwick pad its nickname, the ‘Red Spiral House’. His other colourful interventions include (radiant-heated) tiled floors in blues, greens and yellows, strategically placed skylights and walls of industrial glass that drench the 2,550 sq ft, three-bedroom pad in light.

The Bushwick carriage house graced the pages of Architectural Digest a few years ago and the colour scheme is intact, though the furnishings have changed. According to Curbed, Pardo sold the East Coast base a year and a half ago to creative director Jeremy Filgate, who has now listed it for rent at $9,900 or for sale directly at $2.39m.

The kitchen and living room are on the first floor and open to a walled courtyard garden—a private outdoor space for hosting dinners or get-togethers. The kitchen is also kitted out for entertaining: a double oven, two dishwashers, four fridge drawers and a ton of high-end appliances and gadgets.

Monthly parking in New York averages around $570 per month, making the private garage noteworthy, though, as Curbed points out, you do have to walk through it to get to the main entrance.

If $9,900 per month is out of your budget, you can spend the night in another Jorge Pardo creation in Arles, where he designed the colourful interiors of Hotel L’Arlatan.
