Architect and interior designer Thomas Jul-Hansen describes his latest projects in Manhattan.
Divorced and “rootless,” Danish-born architect Thomas Juul-Hansen had just graduated from Harvard University’s Graduate School of Design with a Master of Architecture degree when he decided to go on a two-month, cross-country motorcycle tour.
But it’s not just his personal life that thrives in the Big Apple — it’s his professional one, too. Through his work, he’s left an everlasting, not to mention stylish, mark on the city’s skyline. It’s a canvas he loves dearly.This $150,000-per-month penthouse is NYC’s priciest rental — but it comes with a catch
Juul-Hansen got his start working for starchitect Richard Meier before becoming one in his own right, launching his own firm in 2003. Apart from his handsome home, Juul-Hansen delivers glamour to his projects for work, such as Sutton Tower on the Upper East Side.He made his name dazzling the interiors for One57, at 157 W. 57th St., the city’s first “supertall” condo tower on what’s now known as Billionaires’ Row. One57, he said, became “the DNA for all of 57th Street.
“Most buildings have views for people from the inside looking out, but here, the High Line is the spectator,” said Juul-Hansen, who has also worked on hospitality and retail projects for clients like top Michelin-starred restaurateur Jean-Georges Vongerichten and others. He also worked on the restaurant Scarpetta. With all of his projects, Juul-Hansen is known for his master use of natural materials — wood and stone — that are always classic.
“There’s a new optimism in terms of developers gearing up to be more active post-COVID, which is already almost five years ago. There’s a new energy with clients. I can feel that they are more active,” Juul-Hansen said.He added that his firm is getting more calls and inquiries about potential development sites and projects.
