When emily and todd voth sold their natural-soap company, Indigo Wild, in 2018, the couple realized they could spend more time away from their century-old home in Kansas City, Missouri. So they decided to get a Manhattan pied-à-terre. Todd became intrigued by “this wonderful Herzog & de Meuron building that towers above everything,” he says, referring to 56 Leonard, a.k.a. “the Jenga Building.” They bought this three-bedroom corner unit on the 29th floor.
The Voths are midwesterners—she’s from Nebraska, he’s from Kansas—although Todd went to Harvard’s Graduate School of Design before joining the Kansas City architecture firm Populous. Emily had been working in sales when she started Indigo Wild in 1996. Her first product was goat’s-milk soap, sold at farmers’ markets. What began as a hobby turned into a big business.
