One of my new favorite shows is Bravo's 9 by Design. Robert and Cortney Novogratz, began their design career by remolding their own home-- and quickly realized that people loved their style and wanted them to do it for them as well. And before they knew it they were in business, Sixx Design was born in 1995 (they only had 6 kids then!).
Their speciality: finding funky spaces (one project was formerly a gun shop) and transforming them into beautiful family homes. Neither of them is trained as a designer, Robert was a stockbroker and Cortney, an actress, but their unorthodox approach is fresh. The guiding philosophy is that "there are no rules," so therefore no mistakes. Their style is eclectic and casual, and definitely kid-friendly. They mix modern art with bouncy seats, Ikea rugs with iconic mid-century pieces, and rare flea market finds.
And on top of that...they have 7 kids under the age of 13!
