​
​​If you love vintage interiors, but feel
overwhelmed by the choice out there, I couldn’t recommend Nina enough!
​
From our initial chat, she instantly got what I was trying to achieve and as soon as the first moodboard was revealed, I was in love!
​
Nina has advised on paint colours, sourced chandeliers, rugs, curtains, tables, chairs, sofas and done plenty of haggling to get some amazing deals from all over the globe.
​
She's introduced me to a whole new world of interiors and I’m completely obsessed. I never would have found the pieces I now have in my home (or had the time to source myself).
Nina has one amazing eye and she makes the whole process fun and enjoyable.
I really feel like my home is now my own.

​​​If you're looking for a designer that'll make your guests jaws drop when they walk in your door, Nina is the one for you!
From our first meeting, she made the whole process enjoyable and inclusive, alleviating my fears while creating visuals that encorporated our beloved pieces, transforming our home into something we could never have dreamed of!
I can't actually believe it's the same house
(or that I live here!)

I was truly delighted to come across Nina's site while looking for home decoration advice, one that didn't incorporate ubiquitous beige and grey colours!
From our very first contact she brought a perfect balance of creativity, professionalism, and attention to detail, and produced timely designs beyond my expectations.
She tirelessly sourced inspirational items that blend skilfully with the scheme, and helped guide purchases within my budget.
The finished result not only continues to draw many gasps of admiration, but is also very functional and liveable. Highly recommended (5*) for anyone looking for a talented and dedicated interior designer!

Working with Nina on my 19th century home was a treat.
I emailed Nina after I had been through two different online interior design packages that, despite my detailed mood boards and pins, generated two similarly boring contemporary schemes, not at all what I asked for.
​
I had followed Nina on Instagram for a while and decided to reach out. I clicked with Nina immediately - finding someone that already decorated and designed in a way that I was attracted to, who seemed to know how to work with older and antique pieces and was experienced in decorating period homes.
​
Nina really listened to, clarified and understood what I liked. We worked on two different floors of my home over the course of about a month with no pressure to buy all brand new everything, utilising what I had, conceptualising the space with different options.
​
I love the way my antique home has come along since we began this process and I look forward to working with Nina further.
Bonus: she does a hand drawn rendering of your space, which felt extremely special and attentive.
