If you are looking to create a unique and harmonious design in your home, Nicky James Interior Design would love to work with you! We are a design firm based out of Fairfield County, Connecticut. Focusing on our clients needs, while creating livable spaces, is at our core. From room designs to new builds, we want to be part of your design journey! 

My appetite for interiors started at a young age. As the son of a talented craftsman, I was thrown right into the world of dirt, dust and design. I often found myself wandering job sites; envisioning a space to create all on my own. This strong foundation led me to New York University, where I studied studio arts. The thriving conceptual based program opened my mind to social, spontaneous and seductive elements of art and design. For me, those three connections would become the platform for my career in interior design. 

For the past 10 years, I have been turning those visions into my own reality. Working closely with clients has brought out a social sense of cultivating unique spaces together - a place comfortable and connected to their lives. My inner spontaneous nature has made for a perfect fit in this expressive industry. Time has shown me that being yourself in the world of design creates an amusing environment for clients, with an exciting diversified product. Something rare, correct… and well, seductive. 

At Nicky James Interior Design, uncovering the essence of people is the most exciting part. Watching that come to life through furniture, lighting, color and decor is simply magic. With that comes the goal of surprising our clients, letting them love what’s seen but relish in what’s unexpected. True timeless design means feeling something new whenever you walk into a room - let me show you.

### Featured Review

**★★★★★ — mkakny, Aug. 2023**

> Nicky is helping me with the design and furnishing of my entire home, including a full kitchen renovation.  He listens, guides, and has helped me find a vision that represents me, but benefits from his experience. He is extremely knowledgeable, always kind and patient and has helped make my house a home. After nearly a year, he has made decorating, renovations, and all the difficult decisions nearly stress-free.  He has also made a large project fun by taking care of all the organizational and administrative work that can weigh on you.  I recommend Nicky James Interior Design without reservation.

**★★★★★ — Yimei Miao, Nov. 2024**

> When we first moved into our NYC apartment, it felt like a disaster—my old boss even jokingly called it a "white-collar prison." When we found Nicky James, he completely transformed our space. With his impeccable eye for design, Nicky injected neutral colors and textures that brought warmth, comfort, and even a sense of fun to our home. He truly revived our apartment, turning it from a drab and lifeless space into a welcoming oasis. We’re beyond thrilled with the results and couldn't recommend Nicky James more highly for anyone looking to elevate their home!

**★★★★★ — Stefanie M, Aug. 2023**

> I hired Nicky James to decorate my apartment in NYC and was blown away by his work. He was very diligent in his design and truly attentive to detail. What I loved most was that he helped bring my vision to life while also incorporating ideas I never would have thought of. His fun personality made working with a designer so pleasant, which has not always been the case in the past. We are so happy with the final product and how cohesive the rooms came out while also having a unique flair. Highly recommend working with him!

**★★★★★ — lmrosey3, Aug. 2023**

> Nicky has been such a reliable and honest consultant on almost every room in my home. Whether it’s been full room design work in my family room and master bedroom, color recommendations, or styling I am always so pleased with his incredible eye, talent, and work.

**★★★★★ — Maureen- Entire Home Design, March 2021**

> Talented, patient, kind, and creative. All the most important qualities in someone who you are choosing to design your home. Nicky listened to me from day one, and created an absolute perfect home for me. He took my very basic vision for what I wanted and created something truly perfect. He is easy to work with, and much more hands on than most interior designers. He handled every single detail and created a truly stress free experience for me. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

**★★★★★ — Office design, March 2021**

> I contacted 6-7 designers about doing an individual office.  No one responded, as it seems everyone was much more interested in doing large scale projects.  But I was lucky to come across Nicky and I have an amazing decorated office that is like home.
>
> Process was very turnkey, which was important to me as busy finance guy who can't visualize design.  Nicky was happy to meet me on weekends and after-hours.  He provided options but made it easy for a non-creative type to decide.  He then quarterbacked the entire process, from delivery/installation of furniture to wall decorations to books on shelves.  I spent very little time on the process but now get to enjoy an incredibly put together office that everyone compliments.
>
> Nicky is extremely professional, passionate in his craft, and hungry to excel.  I would 100% hire Nicky again.
