Model Home: Ubah Hassan’s Runway-Ready Residence

Ubah Hassan, a Somalian model turned entrepreneur and philanthropist, has created a unique living space in her Columbus Circle apartment in New York City that mirrors her eclectic and vibrant personality. Known for her work in fashion and her personal hot sauce company, UBAHHOT, Ubah has been a dynamic presence on The Real Housewives of New York City, bringing her zest for life into every room she enters. Her apartment, which she refers to as her “personal palace,” is a testament to her unique style and resourcefulness​(Bravo TV Official Site)​.

Her living space is characterized by warm pinks and golds, with a notable absence of a traditional office; instead, Ubah prefers to work from her small, yet functional kitchen, surrounded by personal items and her business materials. This choice underlines her practical approach to living and working in a city known for its limited space​(Bravo TV Official Site).

One of the most intriguing aspects of her decor is the artwork created by Ubah herself. Unable to afford conventional art pieces, she decided to create her own, adding a personal touch and a story behind each piece, which are prominently displayed in the seating area. This area also features gold trinkets and black-and-white photos of her family, which not only add a personal touch but also serve as a reminder of her roots and the journey she has embarked on​(Bravo TV Official Site).

Ubah’s living room, accented with a curved, rust-colored couch, serves as her sanctuary for reflection and relaxation. It’s a space where she can contemplate her next moves in life and business, surrounded by elements that represent her personal journey and successes. The entire apartment, with its blend of contemporary aesthetics and personal memories, encapsulates the essence of Ubah Hassan—a woman who brings her outgoing personality and zest for life into every space she inhabits​(Bravo TV Official Site).
