REAL SIMPLE is bringing its eighth annual REAL SIMPLE Home to a luxury building in downtown Manhattan where the project will include two separate residences: a four-bedroom penthouse and a two-bedroom apartment. Located in the newly built One Park Row, these units will showcase brilliant design ideas, approachable DIY projects and smart storage solutions.
The penthouse will feature bright, bold spaces designed by stars of the home design world: Alvin Wayne, Jason Saft, Mandy Cheng, Candace Griffin, Alexandra Gater and Noz Nozawa. Wrapping around the penthouse is a 1,470-square-foot roof deck with different zones for entertaining, gardening and wellness. The two-bedroom apartment, the DIY Annex, offers projects from social media personalities Drew Michael Scott, Mallory Fletchall and Valeria Jacobs. Professional organizer Tyler Moore will bring order and functionality throughout spaces including the pantry, fridge, primary closet and laundry room. All of the spaces will showcase maximalist moments, moody palettes and plenty of inspiration.
Actress, TV host and design enthusiast Drew Barrymore has joined the project as special guest designer. She will be contributing a wellness space she personally curated. Barrymore said, ““I think I’m too greedy to settle on any particular style [for the space]. I want to be able to have every type of art and every type of color, I want to have mid-century that works with the florals, that works with the Moroccan, that works with the antiques.”
The expansive project will be located within One Park Row, marketed by SERHANT. New Development. The 24 floor condominium building is located in the Financial district, neighboring Tribeca, and sits across from City Hall Park and St. Paul’s Chapel.
Eight sponsors have already signed on and will be featured in the REAL SIMPLE Home, including Command™ Brand, House of Rohl®, Minted, NOW®, Pure Leaf®, Valspar®, Fios Home Internet from Verizon. Previous iterations of the REAL SIMPLE Home have been in Florida, New Jersey, and across New York City. The 2024 REAL SIMPLE Home took place at a historic Brooklyn brownstone in Crown Heights.
