In the middle of being pregnant she was still going above and beyond to help me design the kitchen of my dreams. For anyone looking for something unique and personal she is a great choice. **★★★★★ — HU-149951624, June 2025** > Working with Teri was great. Would definitely recommend. She suggested things I couldn’t envision in our kitchen remodel and it turned out great. Would love to have her do any room in my house! **★★★★★ — HU-577877605, April 2025** > I’m 39 and yet talking with Teri was the first time I actually realized what I LIKE when it comes to personal style. She was quick, professional, and talking to her literally transformed our home. Took the time to understand what we wanted, and had a bunch of options for how we could execute her plan. Could not recommend her more! **★★★★★ — Emily, Aug. 2024** > Teri at Nafasi Interiors in Charleston, SC is the BEST! She is not only the loveliest interior designer you will ever work with, but the most talented. Teri will add that effortless cool, creative factor to any space. I highly recommend collaborating with Teri on your next project! **★★★★★ — HU-492666603, July 2024** > My wife and I loved how she was able to reinvent our space in an economical way and adding a fun sense of style. Tons of creative solutions that add the perfect feel and vibe to each space. I felt like I live in a magazine but in the most personal and unique way. We definitely recommend! **★★★★★ — Mary D., April 2022** > Teri is incredibly creative, and she was able to channel our aesthetic into a concrete design image. She is particularly talented at personalizing the design into a beautiful end product that is highly functional. Teri was willing to work with me on areas that I needed to improve function, finding options at different price points. Perhaps most importantly, Teri is a pleasure to work with despite a somewhat stressful process of designing a home. Highly recommend! **★★★★★ — HU-81686833, March 2022** > Teri was so wonderful to work with! After our initial meeting, it was clear that I didn’t entirely know what I was looking for in terms of design for my home, but she asked really targeted questions and had a really well-thought through process to evaluate my style and the type of feeling I wanted to have from the different spaces of my home. The design she presented back following the initial consultation was spot on and within my budget scope. From there on, Teri’s project management skills to implement the design was flawless – from managing the budget, the construction of certain furniture items and sourcing unique products to make the design come alive. She managed everything, so I didn’t have to think about what was going on in the backend and was super communicative throughout the process sharing progress updates, coming back to me with new ideas for the design and flagging any timeline changes. In the end, the project came to completion on time, with everything delivered perfectly. After project completion, Teri went the extra mile to ensure I was comfortable with everything and didn’t need anything tweaked or relooked at. What I enjoyed the most about working with Teri was her energy and passion she brought to the table – it’s clear she loves her job. Bottom-line -- Teri would be my go-to person for my next design project and I would highly recommend her! **★★★★★ — HU-927876472, March 2022** > Teri did a fantastic job e-designing my living room and master bath renovation. She listened to my vision and then put it into action with ease. Would definitely recommend and look forward to working with her when my next project arises. **★★★★★ — mschofer, Feb. 2022** > Teri was amazing. She took so much time to understand our likes, dislikes and hope for our space. I never thought that my husband and I would be able to find a common ground on design style but she somehow managed to find it. I'd recommend her over and over and would happily myself use her again. **★★★★★ — HU-606117999, Feb. 2022** > Beautiful job with our basement pub. I can’t tell you how many times people say they feel like they are in a REAL PUB! Everything you chose works so well together, we had a TON of fun virtually working with you and we can’t wait to tell everyone about what a great job you did! The list could go on and on, but the main attractions so far are the wallpaper (never thought I would like wallpaper! Thank you for changing my mind!) the wine fridges, and the stools! We are really happy, thank you again!! **★★★★★ — Michele Perkins, Feb. 2022** > Teri was very professional and had great tips and insights to guide us in our kitchen renovation. The online consultation was just what I needed to gain confidence and move forward in the renovation. **★★★★★ — HU-606057585, Feb. 2022** > Teri really does a fantastic job of internalizing the client’s design aesthetic while bringing brilliant and truly creative ideas to the table. She is also just genuinely fun to work with and has such a positive attitude. She doesn’t do anything halfway, she goes the extra mile to deliver results. In addition to making our space more beautiful, I feel confident that her work added significant financial value to my house. ## Selected projects - [Ski Lodge Vibes](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/ski-lodge-vibes-pj-vj~7104851) - Location: Charleston, SC - Photos: 16 - [90's House turned Contemporary](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/90-s-house-turned-contemporary-pj-vj~7104829) - Location: Charleston, SC - Photos: 28 - [Jessica's Bedroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/jessica-s-bedroom-pj-vj~901754) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 15 - [Jose's DC Apartment](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/jose-s-dc-apartment-pj-vj~2094178) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 23 - [TT Pat's](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/tt-pat-s-pj-vj~2094151) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 22 - [Dan's DC Rooftop](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/dan-s-dc-rooftop-pj-vj~1362408) - Location: Washington D.C., DC - Photos: 18 - [Lindsey's DC Condo](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lindsey-s-dc-condo-pj-vj~1362386) - Location: Washington D.C., DC - Photos: 24 - [Vicki's Bedroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/vicki-s-bedroom-pj-vj~1362353) - Location: Arlington, VA - Photos: 13 - [Visualization Boards](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/visualization-boards-pj-vj~1238380) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 23 - [13th Rd Living Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/13th-rd-living-room-pj-vj~1001632) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 14 - [Laura's Living and Dining Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/laura-s-living-and-dining-room-pj-vj~1001572) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 16 - [13th Rd](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/13th-rd-pj-vj~403465) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 13 - [Diane's Living Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/diane-s-living-room-pj-vj~901989) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 17 - [Rick's Living/Dining Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/rick-s-living-dining-room-pj-vj~901859) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 14 - [Steph's Fortique office](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/steph-s-fortique-office-pj-vj~305108) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 [See all 15 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/interior-designers-and-decorators/nafasi-by-teri-clar-pfvwus-pf~562245063) ## Ideabooks - [Wish List](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/171773575/list/wish-list) — 1 idea - [tbearclar's Ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/3404175/list/tbearclar-s-ideas) — 72 ideas - [The NEST](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/118155671/list/the-nest) — 10 ideas [See all 3 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/nafasiinteriors) ## Community Q&A **Q: are those or any acrylic/lucite chairs available in emerald not clear?** *(in Photo Questions)* I missed out on a pair of vintage lucite emerald green dining chairs in California and have been looking for something similar ever since.
