"The apartment was beautiful - a bay window in the living room, original trim, cove ceilings, the floors had just been redone - but honestly, the idea of having a kitchen that we didn't have to share with 12 other people is what sold us," Sydney explains. Sydney admits that it was a "bit of a bachelor pad" before the couple moved in, but luckily she was attending Parsons School of Design and majoring in interior design at the time."
"The couple met at an artist collective in Brooklyn's Clinton Hill neighborhood. Sydney, who also posts on TikTok, had been living there two-and-a-half years, and Joe had lived there a year before they started considering alternatives. Joe's friend's parents owned a one-bedroom rental apartment in Bay Ridge, New York, and they decided to check it out."
Interior designer Sydney Moss and partner Joseph Loonam moved from Brooklyn's Clinton Hill to a one-bedroom rental in Bay Ridge to have a private kitchen and share a larger space with fewer people. The apartment includes a bay window, original trim, cove ceilings, and recently refinished floors in a building estimated from the 1910s–1920s. Sydney prepared renders and floor plans while studying interior design at Parsons before signing the lease. The couple customized the living room with hand-painted flowers and murals and furnished the space largely with secondhand pieces and handmade textiles. Pets include cat Nala and dog Percy.
