About
Design rooted in how you live
I believe the most beautiful spaces are the ones that feel entirely, unmistakably yours.
The story
I started NKM Design after a decade working in architecture and high-end residential design, driven by a simple conviction: that great interiors aren't about trends or status — they're about creating spaces that feel deeply personal and effortlessly livable.
My approach is unhurried and collaborative. I take time to understand how you actually use your home, what brings you comfort, and what you've always imagined it could be. That understanding becomes the foundation for everything.
I work with a small number of clients at a time, which means every project receives my full attention from first conversation to final installation.

Philosophy
Restraint over excess
The best rooms have nothing superfluous. Every element earns its place.
Material honesty
Natural materials age beautifully. I favour stone, linen, timber, and plaster over their synthetic counterparts.
Light as a material
How light moves through a space — morning to evening, season to season — shapes every design decision.
Deeply personal
A home should tell your story, not mine. My role is to help you articulate and realise your own vision.
