Lexi brought extensive experience, understanding of needs and creativity to project. Listens to client thoughts, ideas, uncertainties and responds in a very positive manner while bringing her design skills to the picture. Where cost is an issue she offers excellent alternatives. > She shares her sources, if desired she has client accompany her to shop for whatever is needed. This challenging project has been very successful and rewarding because of our work with Alexis Nielsen. **★★★★★ — Paul Greenberg, Dec. 2024** > We’ve worked with Lexi over the years. She’s always a pleasure to work with. Her most amazing feat was rearranging furniture in our sun room and having us repaint the walls to a color that complemented the wood trim. With her magic touch the sun room became an oasis, my favorite place in the house to read, drink my morning coffee, and so on. Lexi has that special eye that elevates your surroundings with not much more than a few tweaks. Go with her. You won’t be sorry. **Comment from Alexis Nielsen Interiors:** > Paul, I love working with you and Julie. Thank you for the amazing compliment! It was great to work with you on your former home and your new home and I hope to work with you again in the future! **★★★★★ — HU-549580770, Oct. 2024** > For over 10 years, Lexi has helped me redesign my home, from selecting the exterior paint colors (first project and I still love the colors!) to helping me ensure all the finishes and paint color selections for a kitchen and primary bedroom remodel worked with the character of my Hulbert home and my design aesthetic to selecting and ordering furniture for the first floor. I continue to call Lexi when I start a new project, big or small. She knows my style and can source what I am looking for easily. Lexi is helping me turn my home into my dream home! **Comment from Alexis Nielsen Interiors:** > Thank you so much for your kind words! I feel privileged that you have trusted me with design help for so many years. I look forward to our next project! **★★★★★ — Suzyn, Oct. 2024** > Alexis has impeccable taste, first of all. The kind of taste the includes creating living spaces that are livable. The kind of taste that finds beautiful things—counter tops, faucets, cabinets—within your price range, no problem. She is professional, responsive, warm, and works quickly and thoroughly. In my experience, as well, and confirmed by working with Alexis, a good designer saves me money, on product, on wild-ass design tangents, on bad products or services, and keeps the project moving. I’ve sent her contact info to my friends. Highly recommend. **Comment from Alexis Nielsen Interiors:** > Suzyn, it was such a pleasure and so much fun to work with you! Thank you, and thank you for passing my name on! I hope you enjoy your new space for years to come! **★★★★★ — Connie Puchalski, Aug. 2024** > Lexi is wonderful. She helped me furnish and decorate my now finished basement and the results were stunning. She is a pleasure to work with and has wonderful thoughts and ideas. **Comment from Alexis Nielsen Interiors:** > Thank you Connie! It was such a fun project to work on! **★★★★★ — Katherine Siler, July 2024** > Lexi is organized and well prepared for every project. Her knowledge of resources is very comprehensive and she found a way to meet all of our needs in both downsizing and moving; huge accomplishments in both categories. She is flexible with timing and communicates well. > Our downsizing, moving and follow up projects were well planned and executed with Lexi's help and support. **Comment from Alexis Nielsen Interiors:** > Thank you Kate! It was such a pleasure to work with you and Stetson! **★★★★★ — Muriel, Aug. 2023** > Alexis came up with creative and beautiful solutions to update and brighten up our kitchen. She is super responsive, all of her design recommendations -from big things like layout changes to little things like hardward - were spot on, and her contractor recommendations were top notch and did such high quality work. She was even able to help cut down the time we would be without a working kitchen in half to accommodate a family member with health issues. So appreciative of her talents and thoughtfulness! **Comment from Alexis Nielsen Interiors:** > Your kitchen turned out beautiful! Thank you for letting us help you design it, and I hope it gives your family pleasure for a long time! **★★★★★ — Marianne Simpson, Dec. 2022** > I've recently undertaken a long distance move, and I don't know what I would have done without Lexi's help with setting up my new residence . From developing a space plan for my furniture, color, lighting and carpeting selection, managing painters/electrician/other trades, her advice continues to be invaluable as I adjust to living in the Chicago area. > And we did all of this long distance--I had a high level of confidence in her from our first conversation even though we had never met in person! Her design skills and knowledge of how to get things done efficiently will ensure that she will be my go-to person for the foreseeable future. **Comment from Alexis Nielsen Interiors:** > Marianne, you were such a joy to work with. Please consider us for future work (but not moving. -hopefully you stay here for a long time to come!) **★★★★★ — Dana Balaz, Aug. 2022** > Lexi did a fantastic job in helping us with design and styling during our house renovation / addition. She assisted with paint colors, light fixtures, tile selection, furniture, bathroom and kitchen fixtures, etc. There wasn’t a room she didn’t touch/influence during our project. Lexi was budget conscious, always showed up to meetings on time and prepared and a great sounding board. She really helped bring our visions to life. What I appreciated most was that Lexi was thoughtful about making timeless choices / recommendations, not just what was currently trending. **Comment from Alexis Nielsen Interiors:** > Thank you Dana! Your home turned out beautifully and it was such a pleasure to be a part of it! **★★★★★ — sarahggray, Nov. 2020** > Lexi is great. With her combination of feng shui and design expertise she is helping me transform my home. She's a good partner and is thinking not just how things look but how they open up the flow. I am planning to do a bunch more work with her, and I highly recommend her services!! **Comment from Alexis Nielsen Interiors:** > Thank you so much Sarah! It is so fun to work with you and see how Feng shui is bringing more energy into your home! **★★★★★ — csgrandfield, Nov. 2020** > Lexi was wonderful in helping me design my Art Deco spare bedroom, complete with gold swirl wallpaper. She always recommends and finds great vendors and pieces, and really makes sure the room has function as well as style! **Comment from Alexis Nielsen Interiors:** > It was a joy to work with you CSG! Your space came out so beautifully and I hope you enjoy it for years to come! **★★★★★ — Mary Weiland, Nov. 2020** > Alexis Nielsen is a remarkable decorator. She is enthusiastic and accommodating. She works with you to determine your style and then helps you make it a reality. In addition, she has a great eye for color. She is patient and relentless in finding the right colors while working within a budget. I consider myself lucky to have found her and to capitalize on her expertise. I recommend her highly. > She helped us with window coverings for the master bedroom and living room. Simultaneously we reupholstered a living room sofa. **Comment from Alexis Nielsen Interiors:** > It was a treat to work with you Mary! I cannot wait for our next collaboration!

Thanks! **Q: What are the dimensions of this bathroom?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Hi Sarah I don't have the dimensions in front of me (the bathroom was done about four years ago) but it was fairly large, approx 8'w by 11'l. Thanks! **Q: Sofas!** *(in Photo Questions)* Where can I find those sofas? They are exactly what I have been searching for. A: Hi, these are the Harrison Sofas from Room and Board, in a custom fabric. **Q: Paint color** *(in Photo Questions)* Hello, can you please tell me the paint color used in this room? Thank you A: Benjamin Moore Shaker Gray HC-45. Thanks for asking! **Q: What color granite/ quartz did you use?** *(in Photo Questions)* What color granite/ quartz did you use? A: Hi Denise. Thanks for your question. The countertop is a Caesarstone quartz in Pebble. **Q: front door paint colour** *(in Design Dilemma)* I have a front door that is fibre glass, painted a brown, kind of anitiqued with white flecks. Want a new colour, will get rid of the storm/screen door. I have pale yellow siding on one side (it does not show up well in the pic), and brick on the other. Trying to find something that works with both. A: A robin's egg blue would be lovely. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-08-13.*
