Hovey Design is a full-service design firm based in Brooklyn, New York. We specialize in staging for real estate, interior design and home products.

We have collaborations with Anthropologie and Kumi Kookoon and our first book, Heirloom Modern (Rizzoli, 2013), tells the stories behind the objects in people's homes and is in stores now. STAGING: A blank canvas allows for endless creative possibilities, but in real estate - especially New York real estate - empty space overwhelms. In Manhattan, Brooklyn and beyond, we provide potential home buyers with a sketch of the new, beautiful lives that await inside those walls. For each staging project, we carefully consider the neighborhood, space, light and buyer demographics when selecting décor. We strive to enhance each unit with simple, understated elegance, leaving enough room for buyers to picture the space as their future home the moment they step inside. INTERIOR DESIGN: When approaching interior design, we know that no one’s taste is formed in the present. Our cumulative experiences define who we are; family vacations, favorite movies, cherished memories from childhood fill our lives with meaning and beauty. Celebrating those experiences, and finding objects reminiscent of them, bestows any décor with soul and transforms a house into a home. Nothing is more personal than a home. When we work with clients to create a space for future memories, we urge them to look to the past.

BOHO SOHO | Here’s one of those increasingly rare SoHo-from-the-movies lofts that evokes a million bohemian dreams. To punctuate the great room’s sunny bright whiteness, we chose a lot of strong blacks to ground the space and play off the cast iron columns. A pair of vintage Kristian Vedel Easy Chairs give great lines, while a 1980s Jochen Hoffmann for Bonaldo convertible lounge chair spreads itself out in front of a Bernhard Rohne 1970s etched metal and oak coffee table. Brushed aluminum and steel elements offer muted reflections throughout. 284 Lafayette 5D | Agents: Andreea Miller Steven Markowicz | Asking: $4,995,000

THE GREENWICHING HOUR | We wanted this classic downtown loft to feel grounded, tough and highly layered in time and styles. Contemporary upholstery meets mid-century (Ingmar Relling), postmodern and contemporary (Cleo Baldon) black leather, while warm woods play as sculptures and soft organics. The art brings color and infuses the neutrality with strong personality. 303 Greenwich Street 3L | Agent: Scotty Elyanow | Asking: $2.5M

TERRACE, JE T’AIME | This Greenwich Village unicorn mixes midcentury lines with Hitchcockian vibes. A set of Robert Mallet-Steven’s N. 222 chairs come to dine, while Franco Albini-style vintage rattan catches Rear Window rays in the solarium. Burl wood meets Gianfranco Frattini in the living room and all lines go to the stripes on the terrace. What an absolute dream! 61 West 9th PHA | Agent: Sara Schwartz | Asking: $2,150,000

THE JEWEL BOX | This family-friendly beauty with a stunning lacy Victorian fretwork arch sits just off the southern end of Prospect Park.

CLASSON ACT | This jewel box of a home sits right on the eastern border of Clinton Hill. Meticulously renovated by jmorrisdesigner and Abelow Sherman Architects, it combines the best traditional townhouse elements with modern, clean perfection. Keeping with the colorful materiality of the design elements - parlor curtains in rich turquoise with a smattering of lemons, a teal herringbone wallpaper in the primary - we layered in brights, preppy stripes and autumnal jewel tones to make the space feel soft, cozy and family friendly, while still elevated and refined. 389 Classon Ave | Agents: Bateman Fields Team -Compass | Asking: $3,600,000

GOLD COAST CASTLE | A gothic revival cone-shaped wood burning fireplace turns this already impressive sunken, double-height living room into a New York unicorn of a home. We added rich velvets for additional luster and moodiness in the streaming light. The rest of the recently renovated space takes a preppy path with impact fun wallpapers, so we integrated more color and a slew of traditional pieces. 51 Fifth Ave 15C | Agent: Laurie Silverman | Asking: $3,695,000

MINT MILANO (IN CONTRACT! | Sold pre-market) | When the owners tap Billy Cotton to renovate the kitchen in pink marble, powder coated red and Noguchi, while personally filling the Classic Six with Modernist mid-century Italian and French lighting, you thank the client gods and give this baby the Milanese treatment it deserves. A 1950s Italian server holds center court in the living room, while a massive Ico Parisi-style desk holds its own with an ‘80s-era Vegni & Gualtierotti for Fasem leather and chrome chair. An acid etched brass coffee table by Bernhard Rohne gives subtle luster. We brought in more PoMo to the kitchen where a pair of Il Loft HI.02 leather swivel chairs pick up the red of the VOLA faucet. A 1950s Italian bread box adds a winky surrealist pop, while a brass Tom Dixon coffee and tea service reflects warm light against the wonderful, cold gray. A Franco Albini wicker chair comes to dinner in the dining room, that also features mid-century Italian velvet and cane dining chairs. Things get even more fun in the kids room with an AELFIE x Ohni Cosmic Yolk rug and a pair of vintage minimalist burl wood platform beds. The grown-ups get a vintage Italian sofa and a pair of old Basculant chairs. Ciao, Bella!! 90 Riverside Drive 15E | Agents: VOYAGE NYC Josh Doyle Jeremiah Doyle | Last Ask: $2,750,000

DIVE RIGHT IN | This apartment is so on the water you could practically go for a swim. Inside one of our favorite buildings in Dumbo, this two bed, two bath + home office offers up industrial elegance and spectacular views. We immersed the place in rich masculine hues and some of our favorite vintage pieces like the Katsholm & Fabricus lounge chair and a beloved set of Sergio Rodrigues Cantu dining chairs. 1 John Street 2C | Agents: The Hudson Advisory Team Callie Katt Carrie McCue | Asking: $2,975,000

JONESIN’ FOR GREATNESS | It’s a story of contrast and industrial luxury at this Morris Adjmi Architects-designed triplex stunner on one of the city’s best blocks. We filled the 27 foot wide, double height great room with two living zones of black and white sculptural beauty. The kitchen and dining area on the main level mezzanine feature a sunning gray marble and steel dining table with high shine chrome Lancaster chairs by Michael Young for Emeco. The full-width primary bedroom offers direct views onto FDNY Engine 33/Ladder 9, possibly one of the best views in NYC. 🔥 41 Great Jones Street Maisonette | Agents: The Bogard New York Team | Luxury Real Estate Mallory Brown Bogard Brandon Bogard | Asking: $8,500,000

SACK IT REAL GOOD | Exposed beams, factory windows and wavy glass. This Columbia Street Waterfront duplex is all industrial greatness but still so cozy and ready for fams who love outdoor space. We kept up those contradictory complementary vibes going with the decor. Strong blacks, great shapes and lots of softness. 139 Sackett Street Unit 1 | Agent: Turnstone Advisory Greg Mire | Asking: $2.795M
