A HOME SHOULD FEEL LIKE A PORTRAIT — ONE THAT REVEALS NOT JUST WHERE YOU LIVE, BUT WHO YOU ARE.

Nicole’s work lives at the intersection of art, fashion, and architecture.

Trained in art history at USC and shaped by an early career in New York fashion, she brings a disciplined understanding of proportion, material, and visual narrative to every project. The precision of the fashion industry sharpened her eye, while international travel deepened her appreciation for craftsmanship, nuance, and the quiet authority of well-composed spaces.

After relocating to San Francisco, she refined her residential expertise at HSH Interiors and has served as Director of Interior Design at LORO Architecture + Interior Design, leading projects that integrate interior architecture, furnishings, and styling into cohesive, layered environments.

Grounded in structure and material integrity, Nicole creates interiors that are layered yet precise, elevated yet livable, and designed to feel enduring and personal.
