Downtown Chic: Sixx Design

The Sixx Design team and family

New York City–based couple Robert and Cortney Novogratz have been renovating and designing unique and hip homes for families for over ten years. Describing their signature style as a sophisticated but bohemian mix of high and low, new and old, they offer their realistic advice on how to create original, warm interiors with ease.

An NYC residence given an update by Sixx Design showcases their luxe bohemian aesthetic.

One part practical guide, one part inspirational volume on creating a look for the home, Downtown Chic pairs humorous anecdotes about the pitfalls and pleasures of renovation with a treasure trove of decorating tips: how to use both boutique and flea-market finds; how to inject lots of personality into a room affordably; how to decorate kids’ rooms so they appeal to children and adults; how to easily rehabilitate outdated furnishings; and many more.

A gorgeous home transformed by Sixx Design in Trancoso, Brazil

In each of the ten projects featured—which include a townhouse in New York City, a country house in Massachusetts, and a beach house in Brazil—before and after shots document the agony and ecstasy of any renovation project, as well as revealing the design duo’s vision and remarkable ability to see through the most awful of spaces to the amazing home that lies within.

Downtown Chic, in all it's beautiful, glossy, and har-bound glory will be published April 28 by Rizzoli. One lucky Love List reader will win a copy of the book for their very own! Just leave a comment below.
