NEW
YORK, Sept. 12, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- REAL
SIMPLE today debuted the sixth annual REAL SIMPLE HOME, a
city penthouse apartment full of color and charm that offers
actionable decorating and design ideas and inspiration. Seven top
designers teamed up with REAL SIMPLE editors to turn a blank-canvas
at Quay Tower in Brooklyn, New
York into a playful oasis featuring maximalist design, mixed
patterns, and layered textures. Visit RealSimple.com/rshome2023 now
for a 360-degree virtual tour of the space and pick up a copy of
the October issue, on sale September
22.
"The 2023 REAL SIMPLE HOME is just as vibrant and vivacious as
the borough of Brooklyn—and you can get a great view of a large
part of it through the stunning floor-to-ceiling windows throughout
the apartment. Some rooms are filled with bright furnishings, mixed
and matched paint and wallpaper (playfully mixing the two is a huge
trend right now), and well-curated objects, books, and decor;
others focus on natural materials and clean lines for a vibe that's
more chill, serene even. Taken in sum, the apartment strikes a
beautiful balance between bold and quiet, and I can't wait for
everyone to take a closer look," said REAL SIMPLE Editor in Chief
Lauren Iannotti.
Each year, REAL SIMPLE teams up with leading designers and
influencers to revamp and refresh a home space for its annual REAL
SIMPLE HOME. This year's team of seven designers includes:
- Bobby Berk,
Emmy-nominated TV host of Netflix's Queer Eye and author of
"Right at Home"
- Michelle Gage, Creative
Director of Michelle Gage Interiors
- Linda Hayslett, Founder
& Principal Designer of LH.Designs
- Megan Hopp, Founder and
Principal of Megan Hopp Design
- David Quarles IV,
interior designer, jewelry designer, and content creator
- Kim and Scott Vargo,
content creators behind the home and DIY brand Yellow Brick
Home
This year's REAL SIMPLE HOME is a colorful and cozy take on a
duplex penthouse apartment, complete with eye-catching patterns,
striking colors, thoughtful ways to maximize space, and more smart
design and decor ideas that readers can bring into their own homes.
To create a harmonious space that's cozy, inviting, and fun, the
designers blended bold prints and patterns with neutral decor
elements and clean lines. Drawing inspiration from the city below
and adjacent Brooklyn Bridge Park, energizing palettes of color are
infused throughout the space. Surrounded by cinematic views of the
Manhattan skyline and Brooklyn
Bridge, the rooftop is an entertainer's paradise, with sections for
a formal dining spot, a casual kitchen hangout, a lounging nook,
and two conversation areas.
The REAL SIMPLE HOME in Quay Tower hits the market today. Quay
Tower is the last new development building along the Brooklyn
Heights waterfront and the REAL SIMPLE HOME penthouse unit is the
last-available residence with private outdoor space in the
building. The duplex home includes three bedrooms, three full
bathrooms and two powder rooms. The spectacular property spans
2,789 interior square feet and 629 square feet of private outdoor
space, which includes an outdoor gas fireplace and kitchen equipped
with a gas line BBQ grill.
The 2023 REAL SIMPLE HOME is also featured in a 360-degree
interactive tour that allows users to virtually explore the space
and learn about the design process with Editor in Chief
Lauren Iannotti as their guide.
Consumers are also able to shop hundreds of products throughout the
home from the virtual tour. The custom experience was created by
Openhaus, which helps brands create 3D virtual experiences that
boost audience engagement and drive business results.

REAL SIMPLE HOME brings fresh, fun, and stylish design and decor
ideas to life in every room. We thank all of our sponsors and
