Lenny Kravitz’s Design Firm Unveils 75 Kenmare, A Curated Collection of 38 Stunning Homes

You probably know Lenny Kravitz as the father of the beautiful Zoë Kravitz, or as the rebel rocker behind songs like “American Women,” but did you know that he’s also behind a design firm called Kravitz Design?

Growing up in New York with creatives who have impeccable taste exposed Kravitz to some of the most eye-catching homes around, so now he’s taking the knowledge and expertise he garnered and applying that to interior design. Kravitz Design is responsible for luxury suites in hotels in Las Vegas and Miami, as well as a rock-and-roll-inspired collection for CB2.

“Home should be a place where you feel like yourself and where your spirit is comfortable,” said Lenny Kravitz, and now the multi-hyphenate created a place that you can call home. Kravitz Design, along with architect André Kikoski and real estate developer DHA Capital, are the mavens behind 75 Kenmare, “a highly curated collection of 38 homes” located in New York’s Nolita neighborhood. The residential building just announced sales. Seventy-five Kenmare comes equipped with everything one needs. Upon entering guests are greeted by a 24-hour concierge, who stands behind a Portuguese Slate reception desk in an area surrounded by the finest materials — millwork wood, a smoked-glass wall, and custom-cut quartzite, granite and marble floors.

Once inside, elevators with a landing made of quartzite and titanium travertine, and bronze doors with oak paneling await to take you to your place. The residences come with sweeping views of the city and White Oak flooring, custom matte white lacquer cabinetry, marble countertops and integrated Gaggenau appliances. The master bedrooms offer a sense of tranquility so that you can get a restful night’s sleep. While 75 Kenmare comes with a gym and an entertaining area in the building, one of its most covetable features is its parking; cars are stored hidden away until a state-of-the-art system brings them to you to take you on your next journey.

All of James Cameron’s films, ranked
From Terminator and Titanic to Avatar, these are the best James Cameron movies ever made
James cameron filming Terminator

Few directors understand the popular imagination the way that James Cameron does. He's had commercial instincts since early in his career, and he has now directed three of the five most financially successful films ever made. Given that legacy, it can be easy to mock what Cameron does because it's so overtly populist. He is not always a subtle director, but it's hard to deny that he's an effective one. Unlike some of Martin Scorsese or David Fincher films, James Cameron movies turn into big blockbusters every time, and he always makes them well.
Now, as we look back on his career to date, it's easy to see the throughlines between each of his projects. One thing you might notice: This guy really loves water. Here's every movie Cameron has ever made, ranked.

Ranked: The 11 best Bill Murray movies ever
He's starred in a lot of films, but if you're a fan, you must see these Murray movies
Bill Murray from Lost in Translation

A name that is and should be widely recognized in comedy, Bill Murray has been around to provide laughs for decades. Bringing his own unique qualities to the screen, Murray has carved for himself a niche based on his personality that simply cannot be copied. Between his masterful physical comedy to his perfectly timed and hysterical line deliveries, Bill is truly a one-of-a-kind talent. From his many roles over the years, the films he stars in are either because a certain director or repeat collaborator has a great bond with him, or simply because he is able to steal the spotlight no matter the assignment. Due to this, he has been given opportunities to play cameos in later films such as Dumb and Dumber To, Get Smart, The Grand Budapest Hotel, and a cameo as himself in Zombieland, which has got to be his best cameo.
All the way from wacky and zany to introspectively deep, Bill Murray portrays a lifetime of emotions in our list of films today. If you watch him closely enough, his performative nuances will make you laugh, cry, and think about what it truly means to be an actor. Murray is loved as a human being worldwide (for the most part), who has reportedly shown his face at random bars and parties just for a kick, becoming the owner of four minor league baseball teams, spontaneously studying philosophy and history in Paris, and starting his own golf apparel line. These and many other reasons are why we are here today to celebrate his accomplishments on screen, so sit back and scroll through the 10 best Bill Murray movies ever.
