Upon arrival at Charlie West, the dramatic double-height hotel-
style lobby draws one into the industrial chic-designed interior
space that dually serves as a curated library and a private
residential lounge, anchored by a grand fireplace. The welcoming
area is framed by its distinctive diagonal beams, a structural
necessity the designers maximized and made into a defining
feature.
Escobar and his design team infused the neighborhood’s DNA
throughout Charlie West’s spacious amenities and successfully
curated an industrial yet modern and inviting interior design for the
lounge, pool and gym, as well as the 120 residences, through the
use of natural materials and opulent textures.
“The interiors at Charlie West transport you to another place and
exude a relaxed vibe, with a very sophisticated palate. From the
moment you step into the lounge-like lobby, with its sumptuous
natural materials and dark urban tones, to the scenic pool with its
serene spa-like feel, one could easily feel as though they are in a
boutique hotel in Miami rather than a luxury condominium in Hell’s
Kitchen,” says Escobar, Senior Partner and Design Principal at his
eponymous firm.
