One57 (157 West 57th Street), the epitome of Billionaires’ Row, has a marvelous knack for attracting top design talent. The façade of the building by Pritzker Prize-winner Christian de Portzamparc was created to emulate flowing water. Acclaimed designer Thomas Juul-Hansen was in charge of the interiors. Jeffrey Beers International designed the lobby and, most recently, an apartment 61 floors up. The three-bedroom, three-bath condo is listed for $29 million, and the price includes the furniture used to create an aesthetic described as "modern elegance with American sensibility."
There are nods to Jeffrey Beers’ glass-blowing experience as an art student.
