As an artist and actor, Samiha has beautifully balanced the grand, 1800s Victorian architecture of the space — featuring soaring ceilings, massive doorways, and original brass-knobbed pocket doors — with her own curated, minimal aesthetic. What makes this 600 square foot home truly special is that almost everything inside was sourced secondhand, found on the street, or gifted by her creative community of friends. Samiha proves that you don't need to buy brand new to create a warm, lived-in space; instead, she fully embraces the character of the NYC brownstone, taking her time to hunt for the perfect Facebook Marketplace treasures that complement the apartment's historic bones. 🛋️ BE FEATURED ON THE CHANNEL: Do you have a space you want to share?
