In the two short days since he was profiled in the Times' Sunday Real Estate section, 24-year-old furniture scion Loren Kreiss has become an object of fascination around Gawker, for his wealth (he lives in a 1,500-square-foot Chelsea playpen), his living style (lots of fancy doodads and a cleaning lady to keep 'em shiny), and his sexuality (he fucks straight but certainly lives gay). Since we just can't wrap our heads around the boy, we asked Loren to play 10 questions with Gawker. Being an affable young man, he agreed:

After yesterday's ruminations on the life and times of 24-year-old furniture scion and Chelsea neatfreak Loren Kreiss, Kreiss himself contacted Gawker to clear some things up.

This weekend's Times tries extra-specially hard to tease your suicidal tendencies with a Real Estate article on 24-year-old Kreiss furniture scion Loren Kreiss. Kreiss enjoys a 1,500-square-foot loft in Chelsea's Mercantile Building (estimated to go for about $6k per month), which he's furnished with his family's furniture, an antique Coke machine, a custom-made Taylor guitar, and several clocks that he purposely sets to the wrong time so he can be appropriately "quirky." His walls are decorated with art from his unpublished graphic novel — future novels are written on his Blackberry while he's getting his cardio fix at the gym.
