Lenny Kravitz's Y2K Heaven

Lenny Kravitz’s Miami residence, designed by Architröpolis and inspired by the designs of Verner Panton. Contemporary efforts to revive the fervor around Y2K design and aesthetics inevitably lead to Lenny Kravitz and similar artists renowned for their retro taste. The 90’s-era futurism and disco elements that define Y2K architecture are strongly represented in Architröpolis’ construction. Simultaneously sleek and vibrant décor brilliantly underscore a loungey environment with echoes of a dreamscape… and even louder echoes of Verner Panton - the Danish architect who pioneered a similar utilization of exotic colors and textures. 

Verner Panton’s architectural exploits blurred the lines between fine art and extravagance. Panton’s retro vision for the habitats of tomorrow have served as the inspiration for countless aesthetic adventures and epitomize a bygone but beloved era of futurism. The glossy, psychedelic features that typify Panton’s work are hypnotic and undoubtedly explain why Lenny Kravitz’s Miami residence served as the backdrop for Britney Spears’ infamous “Oops” music video and a scene in Zoolander, the 00’s era comedy cult-classic. The genius of everlasting artistic harmony is an ability to resonate with the past and the current - an aesthetic feat accomplished by Verner and furthered by Architröpolis and Kravitz.
