Real Estate Advisory

Avissa Mojtahedi, founder of NYC Apartment Design, is a licensed real estate salesperson with Christie’s International Real Estate Group.

This dual perspective allows us to guide clients through the process of searching for and securing a home - whether purchasing or renting - with a design-led approach from the beginning. We search for your new space together, considering not only what a property is, but what it can become.

Each property is evaluated with your lifestyle in mind — including how you live day to day, your preferred layout and flow, and the overall look and feel you’re after. Existing pieces are also taken into account, with scale and placement considered during property visits to ensure a cohesive fit.

Throughout the process, we help refine options and support decision-making with both design and long-term value in mind.

What we design.

  • Interior of a room with two large ornate gold-framed mirrors hung on a white wall. Several small colorful portrait paintings are arranged on the wall between and near the mirrors. A white couch with multiple white pillows is in the foreground. To the right, part of a white paper lantern is visible on a standing lamp.

    STUDIO INTERIORS

    For studios or a single room that needs calm, flow, and personality.

  • Bedroom with beige upholstered headboard, white nightstands, assorted pillows, potted plant, and decorative candles.

    1 -2 BEDROOM HOMES

    For 1–2 bedroom apartments or multi-zone spaces that need cohesion and lifestyle support.

  • A dining room with a wooden table, black chairs, a flower vase, a brown leather headboard, black nightstands, green subway tile wall, pendant and wall lights, and a closed white door.
