Episodes
This Old House
Meet husband and wife design team Bob and Cortney Novogratz, owners of the NYC based design firm, Sixx Design, and parents to six kids, with one on the way. The couple is widely known in New York for their uncanny ability to renovate and sell sumptuous homes in the city, most of which they reside in with their large family for some period.
The Wild, Wild West Village
Sixx Design's latest and greatest creation is a five-story, 8,000 square foot Manhattan dream home, built on the site of a former sex shop. With the lease up on the temporary space, it's finally time for the family to move into the new house...but there's just one problem: it's STILL not done!
Major Workout
With the birth of their seventh child, Bob and Cortney Novogratz invite friends and family to their home to celebrate baby Major's christening. At the same time, the couple decides to take on a challenging new design project: the renovation of an old wrestling gymnasium across the bridge in Hoboken, NJ.
Weekend in the Hamptons
Bob and Cortney Novogratz go head to head when Cortney insists on taking on a low-budget job for a prominent client in the Hamptons. Cortney thinks that the renovation could result in more referrals, but Bob thinks that the job isn't worth the trouble.
With Benefits
Bob takes the lead with raising money for his oldest son Wolfie's basketball team, while Cortney throws herself into the effort to raise money for a dear friend's daughter who has leukemia and desperately needs to pay for a bone marrow transplant. As both benefits bump up against each other and the money-losing office renovation kicks into overdrive, Bob and Cortney realize that the souring economy may make it harder to sell their two expensive Manhattan properties than they thought.
London Calling
Bob and Cortney Novogratz take the kids to London to promote the release of their new coffee table book on design and renovation, Downtown Chic. As always, the trip serves two purposes: promoting the book and the business while also searching for an international buyer for the new house.
Down at the Jersey Shore
Bob and Cortney Novogratz get their first big commercial job: they've been hired to design the interior of a brand new 24-room boutique hotel on the Jersey Shore. The pressure is on as they try to reconcile their unconventional design aesthetic with the practical needs of a functioning hotel.
Selling Point
With their biggest design project only weeks away from completion, the Novogratzes steal some well-deserved family time at their Berkshires country house. But just days before the opening, it's discovered that one of the last remaining hotel design details remains unfinished. With the pressure mounting to sell at least one of their Manhattan residential properties, Bob and Cortney are confronted with some tough choices about how to structure their business - and their lives - for the future.
