Design By Anthony Ortiz

Upper East Side sidewalks bloom with quiet possibility. A storefront near 96th Street offers a glimpse into the city’s quieter craft—floral design that moves beyond bouquets to become small, living sculptures.

Design By Anthony Ortiz operates from 957 Park Ave, New York, NY 10028, tucked between the brownstones and the morning rush. The address places it within walking distance of the Met and the Conservatory Garden, where the neighborhood’s own seasonal palette shifts from tulips to dahlias.

Telephone inquiries can be made at (212) 396-2782; the voice on the other end fields requests for everything from single-stem arrangements to full wedding canopies. Clients often mention wanting something that feels both intentional and effortless—branches spilling over a low vase, or a single anemone set against a matte ceramic.

Those who prefer to plan ahead can find directions on the map. The shop’s work tends to reflect the street outside: restrained, precise, and quietly luxurious.
