Buy It: Steven Cojocaru’s MCM
By Christa TerryHave $3.95 million just sitting around burning a hole in your pocket? Love that classic old school modern look? Then have I got just the property for you. Fashion critic Steven Cojocaru’s mid-century modern home is apparently up for sale, though you can lease it at a mere $20k per month.
What does that buy you? 3,850 square feet, first of all, under high pitched-roof ceilings with sweet exposed wood. There’s plenty of glass to let the outside in, and gorgeous exposed brick in the living room. Then there are all the “little” details like an orb fireplace, amazing bath tubs, and the neutral decor that might surprise some at its understated tastefulness.
And how about that infinity edge pool, mmm. Those are so awesome when done right. I tell you truly that while I usually go in for a bit more color and a lot more black, I wouldn’t kick this particular real estate out of bed. How about you? Like it? Love it? Hate it? Why?

It is the little too understated for the Manolo, although, strangely, not for the Cojo. Who knew?

I love mid-century modern, but I love it with the colors that sometimes appear in it–those wonderful organges and turquoises that date it so beautifully. Still, an absolute revelation about Cojo, as Manolo suggests.
