"Deciding to move back to New York on a whim, Hollis Loudon Puig, founder of Hollis Loudon Interiors, put a deposit on this 606-square-foot rental apartment while traveling for work in North Carolina. "I didn't step foot in it until the day I got the keys, and somehow it was perfect. The whole thing felt like all the stars aligned," she writes."
"Hollis moved in to the unit in August 2024 and reports that it was a "clean white canvas, beautiful in its simplicity, and ready for a personality to be layered in." The finishes of the space were already modern and updated, and the unit also came with a washer and dryer, garbage disposal, gas range, and Bosch dishwasher." And, of course, there were the views from her window of the Brooklyn Bridge Hollis describes as "nothing short of amazing.""
""Honestly, it was easier than I thought, but only because I moved in with absolutely nothing. I am talking no mattress, no sofa, not even a sad folding chair. Just clothes," "That said, shopping was still a little stressful since I needed pieces that were both affordable and actually in stock, which post-COVID supply chain issues and tariffs made feel like a treasure hunt.""
Hollis Loudon Puig placed a deposit on a 606-square-foot New York rental while traveling and did not see the unit until she received the keys. She moved in during August 2024 to a clean white canvas with modern finishes and included appliances such as a washer and dryer, garbage disposal, gas range, and Bosch dishwasher. The unit features a notable Brooklyn Bridge view. She arrived with virtually no furniture, which simplified some decisions but created a search challenge because of post-COVID supply chain issues and tariffs. The finished apartment is eclectic and fun, blending traditional and contemporary pieces with layered, high-low balance.
