In the world of real estate, it’s about creating a narrative and storytelling to inspire home purchasing.
Sellers work with us because we have the best stylists, designers, and photographers at our fingertips. We know how important it is to tell a story to the right audience before we launch a listing to market and achieving the success of selling their home at the highest price.
In real estate, staging is far more than arranging furniture—it’s about crafting a narrative that helps buyers imagine themselves in a home. CASA Collective, a dynamic duo comprised of Cristina Villegas and Sara Armenta, excels in this transformative art. Their talent in personalized interior design and home staging brings a unique blend of style and cohesion to every project, turning each space into a compelling story.
Cristina Villegas, who has spent two decades running the Yoya Shop in the West Village, is not only a cherished friend but also a seasoned expert in understanding family lifestyles and creating warm, inviting home environments. Her deep connections with clients inform her approach, enhancing her ability to influence and elevate home styling.
CASA Collective is one of the top styling designers we work with. Our latest collaboration was style our listing at 77 Charlton St, S13C. This collaboration highlighted their exceptional ability to transform spaces, even when working with existing furniture. The goal was to create a cohesive and inspiring environment that allows potential buyers to see the home’s full potential. Cristina and Sara’s approach goes beyond mere aesthetics—they understand the psychological and emotional aspects of home buying. Their work ensures that each space feels welcoming and livable, enhancing its appeal and allowing buyers to connect emotionally.

Another standout project involved Cristina Villegas at 30 Warren, a new development in TriBeCa. Here, Cristina faced a unique challenge: the developer had already purchased a substantial amount of furniture, but the staging needed to work with different layouts across various units. Cristina’s creative solutions and expertise enabled her to use the existing furniture in innovative ways, showcasing the property’s versatility and charm.
