The 130 William development is located in New York City.

Aston Martin customarily crafts some of the most elegant precision-focused vehicles on the market today. Its DBX SUV is no exception to that rule. The company has teamed up with Sir David Adjaye, a renowned architect responsible for the design of the National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, D.C., and Lightstone, one of the largest privately held real estate companies in the United States, to create five homes available for purchase at the 130 William development in New York City.

The owners of these homes will have a Adjaye-designed 130 William Adjaye Special Edition Aston Martin DBX included with their purchase.

Aston Martin Chief Creative Officer, Marek Reichman and Sir David Adjaye worked together on this project, bringing the spirit of Aston Martin’s design and dedicated craftsmanship to 130 William’s custom architecture and handcrafted interiors. “This is a fascinating project for the Aston Martin design team to work on and a great opportunity to collaborate with Sir David,” Reichman said: “It is our first real estate project in New York City but our second collaboration in real estate design after the Aston Martin Residences in Miami. We can apply what we have learnt in Miami and also bring our unique automotive design skills to these beautiful luxury homes.”

The 800-foot tall 130 William complex includes 242 residences, over 20,000 square feet of amenities, and a new plaza park. It is 66 stories tall with a hand-cast façade with refined bronze detailing, and large-scale arched windows.

The five homes come fully furnished and are located on the 59th and 60th floors. They each have a unique design identity complete with a private outdoor loggia that spans the entire length of the residence and is set behind the buildinng’s façade, with bespoke screens dividing the balconies into a series of distinct zones for dining and relaxing. The interior is filled with hand-crafted materials and textiles and furniture from the Aston Martin Home Collection by the Italian manufacturer Formitalia.

When residents first step off the elevator on the way to their front door, they will see interior design elements featuring Aston Martin’s signature crosshatch pattern in a bronze finish. Beneath the bronze detailing is wallpaper designed by Adjaye Associates. A bespoke smoked glass mirror created by Aston Martin Design reflects the skyline view in a distinctive arched form which is a nod to the arches on the façade.

Each home contains a living, kitchen master bedroom, dining room, one spare room, and at least one additional bedroom. The living room offers city-wide views, clean lines and sleek furnishings from the Aston Martin Home Collection by Formitalia. Designers have linked the dinging room to the open plan kitchen, which features custom textured blackened oak Italian cabinetry, Gaggenau appliances, and marble countertops hand-selected from the Apuan Alps in Tuscany, Italy.

Warm materials in the master bedroom make the space invited. This includes an expansive bed with custom cashmere headboard cushions and slender metal detailing.

The spare room can be customized by the buyer. They are offered their choice of a racing simulator, office or library space, or bedroom. The racing simualationn room was created in partnership with Curv Racing Simulators, a new British technology company founded by Darren Turner, a three-time class winner of the 24 Hours of Le Mans for Aston Martin and an industry-leading expert in racing simulation technology.

In homes with a private office or library, a custom-designed desk is paired with a classic Eames chair alongside a lounge chair by Swoon and stool by Space Copenhagen. Black wood shelves and cabinets feature smoked glass alongside textured Salvatori marble walls.

The bathrooms have textured Italian Salvtori marble throughout. In the master bathroom, a Salvatori solid carved marble soaking tub and carved marble double vanity sinks are paired with a spacious walk-in shower and private water closet. Secondary bathrooms incorporate Grigio Versilia marble and Bianco Carrera marble and powder rooms include a bamboo textured Grigia Versilia marble.

The 130 William Adjaye Special Edition Aston Martin DBX marks the first time that Aston Martin has collaborated with an architect on the custom fit out of one of their signature vehicles. The DBX features a number of 130 William-related features including an Aston Martin-first, real stone accents, with Grey “Pietra D’Avola” marble inlays matched with Satin Walnut wood.

Aston Martin’s hand-stitched leather has Parliament Green trim and the steering wheel matches the walls of the simulator room option. There’s also carved solid walnut trim, with Q by Aston Martin Parliament Green leatherwork and details in bronze, black anodized aluminium and real stone.

Pricing of the five homes includes two penthouse options. The list prices for each unit is $11,500,000 for PH60A, $10,500,000 for PH60B, and three loggia residences L59A, L59B and L59C, priced from $3,985,000, $5,985,000 and $10,000,000.
