New York Interior Designer
Alexandra Howard is a luxury interior designer working in New York City, creating refined, timeless interiors for the city’s townhouses, apartments, and prewar residences. Her work brings together Southern warmth and cosmopolitan restraint — interiors of exquisite craftsmanship, distinctive character, and a seamless marriage of architecture and design.
Interior Design for New York Homes
From a Greenwich Village apartment designed concept-through-installation to a family townhouse uptown, Alexandra creates New York interiors that feel personal, layered, and effortlessly elegant. She works across Manhattan — Greenwich Village, Tribeca, SoHo, the Upper East Side, and beyond — as well as in the Hamptons and Westchester, balancing the intimacy of a New York address with considered, enduring detail in every room.
Southern Grace and New York Polish
Raised in Charleston and trained in New York at Parsons The New School for Design, Alexandra honed her aesthetic at several AD100 interior design firms before founding Alexandra Howard, Inc. in 2017. Her work has been featured on the cover of Luxe Interiors + Design and in New York Cottages & Gardens, Charleston Magazine, Southern Home, and the Rizzoli book The Allure of Charleston. The result is a point of view that is at once timeless, refined, romantic, and contemporary.
