It’s hard to beat summer in the city — except maybe on the very hottest days. And if you’re lucky enough to have a little outdoor space, like a balcony, terrace or patio, it’s even better. Christine and John Gachot, the designers who founded the New York interiors studio Gachot, have a little experience with that. The multilevel penthouse once belonged to the revered modernist architect Paul Rudolph, and it has a sweeping view of the East River, Roosevelt Island and the Pepsi-Cola sign in Long Island City from the largest terrace on the top level. “Having an outdoor space in the city is incredible,” said Mr. Gachot, 53.

It is about a five-minute drive from the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art, and about 15 minutes from downtown Sarasota. Sarasota Bay is a few blocks away, and this house comes with a deeded boat slip. The tile floors continue through an arched doorway into a living room with an original fireplace and two sets of French doors that open to a patio. Through another arched doorway is a dining room open to an updated kitchen with walnut cabinets, marble counters and stainless steel appliances. Off this space is a family room with a built-in entertainment center and white-painted, beamed ceilings and paneled walls.

New YorkFashion designers love the jump from homo sapiens to home, which liberates them from necklines, hemlines, and everything in between. One thinks of the über-modernist Halston, the floors and furniture in his Paul Rudolph townhouse sheathed in lean industrial gray, flocks of white orchids sailing in the stillness. Or of the changeless Bill Blass , the masculine classicism of his poised Sutton Place living room an escape from the WASP shmattes demanded by his East Side clientele. Or of the quixotic Karl Lagerfeld , chasing one period vision after another through serial homes decorated to the nth degree, costly statements of style that bored him once done. These postwar men were actually following in female footsteps.
