Nina Design Company

Nina has been wonderful to work with on reimagining and updating the interior design of our home. Although we have lived in the house for some years and had completed some structural upgrades, our living room, kitchen and dining room still looked unfinished and lacked cohesion. Nina was able give each space an elegant transformation and create a transition to and from each room so that the space works as a whole. For instance, the dining room started out as a big empty space. Nina was able to design cabinetry and seating, lighting and furniture choices to make it into a room we could entertain in, while having much needed storage. Nina was able to combine a high end look in way that aligned with our budget, while giving us the functionality we were looking for. I feel lucky to have found such a talented designer.

Our experience with Nina during our kitchen, laundry, powder room, and master bath renovation was fantastic. Nina handled every aspect of the design process, from space planning to specifications and finishes, and provided ongoing support during construction. Working with Nina was a pleasure for several reasons. She was able to strike a perfect balance between incorporating her own design aesthetic and respecting our individual preferences and vision. Nina encouraged us to be bold and helped us select an amazing wallpaper that we would not have chosen on our own. Nina is also an excellent communicator, responding quickly and efficiently across all channels, including email, text, in-person meetings, and video calls. This was especially important during construction when prompt decision-making was necessary. Nina's pricing was transparent and she worked within our budget, providing options that delivered the best value for our money. She also has a strong reputation with local vendors, which was helpful in troubleshooting issues like an incorrect tile order. Throughout the project, Nina demonstrated her extensive knowledge and expertise by providing spot-on recommendations and efficiently addressing the myriad of detailed questions that arise during a renovation. Overall, working with Nina was a pleasure and we are thrilled with the end product. We highly recommend her services for any home renovation project.

Nina is an interior designer that you can trust. Her technical and visual knowledge is great and she is pleasant, easy and fun to work with. When I told her about the forms and colors I imagined, she designed my room in the most efficient and stylish way. The final product was great. The room is now full of spaces that she created it is now more useful and it has provided a look that fits the style in my head.

We worked with Nina to remodel our kitchen and two bathrooms and were very pleased with Nina's attention to detail as well as her unique and vibrant style. She is a warm and positive person to work with and also has an extraordinary ability to comprehend our aesthetic and generate fascinating designs. She was very considerate of our budget which we appreciated. We plan to use her services again if we ever need a project design in the future.

Collaborating with Nina was an incredible experience, and the end result is a stunning condo! Prior to this project, we had no knowledge or expertise in remodeling or home improvement. Nina expertly guided us through the design process, which included renovating one full bathroom, two half bathrooms, new paint, new floors, and lighting. Nina had a wealth of knowledge regarding various materials and installations, which helped us stay within our budget while still reflecting our personal style. Additionally, she provided invaluable practical advice, ensuring that we selected fixtures that would be easy to maintain and that we would not regret down the line. This was particularly important for us, as we had no prior experience in this field. Nina also has an extensive network of contacts throughout San Francisco, and was able to handle any query we had throughout the entire process. Her expertise and guidance made the project stress-free and enjoyable. If you are looking for a professional who can transform your next home project into something amazing, we highly recommend Nina!

Nina is not just a talented and imaginative designer, but also a wonderful collaborator who puts your needs first. Her expertise allows her to make wise investment choices when it comes to sourcing beautiful materials and supporting local artists, as well as finding affordable options that don't compromise on style. With Nina, you'll get a stunning and unique design that truly represents your personality and preferences, all while staying within your budget. Whether you're an individual or a family, Nina is the perfect choice for anyone who wants a home that is both exciting and reflective of who they are. Highly recommended.

Nina was a true blessing in our first home design project. We purchased a new construction house in the Palo Alto, and while the finishes were well done, we wanted to infuse our personal style. As conservative designers, we turned to Nina to push our boundaries and introduce design concepts and combinations that we would have never considered on our own. Our home needed to be child-friendly for our toddler and incoming twin infants, which added a layer of complexity. Nina consulted on every room, creating an incredible four-bunk bedroom for our children to grow up in, a finished entertainment basement with media built-ins designed to house a vinyl record collection, a formal living room highly conducive to Christmas decorating, and a dining room with wainscoting and custom wallpaper. Throughout the five-month project, Nina maintained constant communication, even during her personal vacation in Paris. We were impressed with her taste, direction, professionalism, and swiftness of execution. Most importantly, she had a deep respect for our design budget and never compromised design integrity to make it work. Nina was encouraging when we were on the fence about certain choices and professional when we weathered internal disagreements about the direction to take. She took constructive criticism well and her reiterations were always closer to our vision. We wholeheartedly recommend Nina Design Company to anyone without reservation.

We enlisted Nina to renovate our startup office, and we couldn't be happier with the results. Her design choices perfectly aligned with our company culture, and she also worked closely with our general contractor, architect, and project manager to ensure that everything was executed to our specifications. Nina's creativity, professionalism, and exceptional organization skills truly impressed us. We highly recommend her services!

Working with Nina Design and her team has been an absolute delight! Despite my boyfriend and I having totally different styles, Nina was able to merge our ideas and create a home that feels like a masterpiece. Nina started by presenting three design proposals for each space with different furniture options within our budget, and she was always open to our feedback, taking detailed notes on our likes and dislikes until we reached a final agreement. Thanks to her keen eye for design, she pushed us out of our comfort zones and incorporated a mix of textures, patterns, and colors that fit perfectly within each space. Her team handled everything from ordering to tracking, including complex furniture deliveries from Italy and lighting shipments in accordance with our HOA guidelines. One of the standout features of our home is the subtly textured living room walls featuring plastered crocodile print with gold outlines, which was completed by the wonderful staff in just three weeks. Despite pandemic-related delays with some of our furniture, Nina and her team kept us informed on timing and coordinated to keep our older furniture in the meantime. Nina's vendor provided white-glove delivery service and ensured all items were inventoried, delivered, and set up without any issues. The Wallcovering Installations team also did a fabulous job installing and crafting our custom wallpaper to perfection. In summary, Nina and her team completely transformed our space for the better, and we're incredibly grateful for their services. We never felt like just another client, and working with Nina was an absolute dream. Thank you for providing an unbelievable experience!

Nina was our designer of choice for our full kitchen and full bath remodel, as well as a sprucing up of our dining room. We recognized the need to hire a designer, as we had completely different aesthetic interests and required someone to bring our ideas together cohesively. Additionally, we knew that we would need a person or structure to push us into decision land and not procrastinate. As first-time remodelers, we were blown away by Nina's exceptional creativity. Her ideas were amazing, but she was never forceful and always kept our preferences and functionality in mind. She suggested alternatives that we hadn't considered, and made our rough ideas perfect. Nina also advised us against unnecessary expenses, such as ripping up the kitchen floor, even though it would have been a glamorous addition to her portfolio. She encouraged us to retain our existing wood floors, which were in good condition, and advised us to stain them differently if necessary. During the design phase, Nina provided us with two concepts for each room, and often we would naturally choose opposing ones. However, Nina excelled in helping us merge our ideas or giving us her expert eye when we couldn't decide. Even when we presented her with vague concepts, she took the time to understand our vision and guide us in the right direction. Our kitchen required numerous iterations due to the cabinet layout, but Nina was patient and provided us with numerous versions and ideas without overcharging us. The outcome was incredible. Our spaces are now not only beautiful, but they also resonate with our style and daily routines. The dining room project, which we expected to be a small project, turned out to be a game-changer. We now use the room every day, and it flows seamlessly with the other rooms. Throughout the entire process, Nina was available to us for consultation via email, text, video, and in-person meetings. She even accompanied us to a local tile shop, linked us with vendors, and connected us with our contractor. As the project came to an end, Nina continued to offer her expert advice on new paint colors to transition the new spaces seamlessly with the old. In summary, Nina made the overwhelming experience of being novice remodelers much easier to navigate. She was not only fun to work with but also personable, funny, and could engage in a wide range of topics. We were sad to see the project end because we no longer had an excuse to spend time with Nina. We highly recommend hiring Nina, and we would undoubtedly do it again!

It's difficult to know where to start when describing our exceptional experience working with Nina! My husband and I purchased our first home in October and were expecting our first child in February. We required a significant amount of furniture in a short amount of time, having previously lived in a small apartment. Nina was able to understand our design preferences and work within our time constraints to create a perfect balance between my husband and me. She completed furnishing our entire home within five months, just in time for our baby's arrival. Nina's ability to find stunning, high-quality items within our budget was impressive. She respected our financial limitations and demonstrated excellent judgement in knowing when to splurge and when to save. Her attentiveness to our needs and preferences exceeded our expectations. Despite some difficulties, such as my husband's particularity, Nina was always patient and flexible. Nina possesses excellent instincts and is skilled at articulating her viewpoints. She was able to challenge us to venture beyond our comfort zones while remaining true to our style. We were thrilled with the items she encouraged us to choose, including paint colors and lighting fixtures, which have become our favorite things in our home. While I had initially wanted to decorate the nursery alone, I sought Nina's advice when I felt stuck. Her suggestion to paint large, neutral stripes on the walls was one we never would have considered on our own. The paint design elevated the nursery, and guests frequently compliment the stripes as the standout feature of the room. Nina's talent in turning ordinary elements into visually stunning ones was remarkable, and she completed the project quickly and within our budget. Whenever we return home, we are struck by how great everything looks, even after brief absences. Nina's work is the reason we were able to furnish our home beautifully and quickly. Working with Nina was not only a productive experience, but it was also enjoyable. We learned a lot, achieved the look we wanted for our home, and had fun in the process. I highly recommend Nina's services without reservation.--

I could not imagine a better choice than Nina Design company for our home. She is amazing with creative design solutions. Thanks for her chic and elegant style we have increased our living standards. There is no boring spot left in the house after her final touch
