Nicola assisted me with the layout of bedrooms, living spaces and bathrooms for the refurbishment of my home. We chose paint colour, wall paper, furniture and various other pieces for the project. Nicola also assisted with lighting pieces, curtains and soft finishings. I would highly recommend her services to anyone wanting to transform their home into something beautiful and homely at the same time.

Nicola Hicks is innovative, flexible and enjoyable to work with. She has helped us create a beautiful family home. Nicola spent time understanding our thoughts on what we wanted as well as tapping into our stylistic preferences. She came up with designs and suggestions that we would never have been able to think of ourselves. Our project involved a total house renovation (of a listed property) which often meant a lot of design decisions had to be made within tight timescales. Nicola's expertise, guidance and "hand-holding" was invaluable in this regard; she helped me to stay focussed on what was needed by who and when. I cannot recommend Nicola more highly, she's great to work with and always prepared to go that extra mile!

We cannot praise Nicola enough.
We worked with her on a full renovation of our maisonette and whilst it’s been a really big project Nicola has made the whole process so much smoother.
She has excellent taste and a real eye for space. Nicola created an amazing design throughout the whole property which both fits with our taste but has taken them to a new level with her own unique vision.
It’s been really exciting seeing the whole project come together. Nicola is also responsive and happy to help with any query.
We found her knowledgeable and extremely professional to work with.

We worked with Nicola on our total house refurb and basement and she really saved us. We hadn't understood the extent of what we needed to do to get things over the line. Nicola'a experience is invaluable when you interface with builders as she can push back or make alternative suggestions. She has numerous contacts which cuts down on time selecting. To name just a few of the aspects that she really stood out on - designing all of our shelving and storage, bringing together our ideas for colour schemes and wallpaper and curtains including doing a decoration schedule for the decorators (if you don't know what this is this shows you need Nicola!), designing the layout of the bathrooms precisely (the upmarket bathroom company does not do this to the level your builders need), lighting schedule (again you want to get this right), placing orders for furniture and assisting our choices (a useful go between between my husband and me). Main lesson - get Nicola in early, we didn't realise we needed her until decisions were backing up. A real pleasure to work with. Thank you, Nicola!

Nicola has been brilliant throughout our 13 month project to rebuild and renovate our home. She quickly understood what we were trying to achieve and understood our preferences, coming up with excellent ideas, suggestions for layout, joinery designs, bathroom designs, furniture, soft furnishings and colour schemes. With her style, knowledge, contacts and experience, Nicola has helped us create a beautiful home which we would not have been able to achieve without her. I thoroughly recommend Nicola to anyone looking for a real design professional to support them through a renovation or building project.

We have worked with Nicola for a number of years and cannot express how impressed we are. Nicola is highly professional, incredibly creative and provides the detailed information for us to build to that ensures clients are delighted with the end results.
We enjoy working with various professional teams but Nicola stands out from the crowd and we are very keen to continue our professional relationship on many more projects in the future.

Nicola worked for us on our project renovating a Victorian property. She was recommended by a friend, and I am so relieved that we had her alongside us every step of the way. From the very start, she understood exactly the overall look we wanted to achieve in our house, and led us expertly all the way to fruition. She provides a service which in my opinion is the perfect combination of professional design skills, a wealth of experience in renovation projects and outstanding creative talent. During our project, she became my most trusted advisor, and I consulted her on every design element, regardless of whether or not it was part of her brief. I particularly appreciated her attention to detail, as well as her ability to foresee and therefore sidestep any potential pitfalls. Above all though, I must commend her wonderful inventiveness, which resulted in the addition of many elements to our project which are now the stand-out features of the house.

I am a commercial property developer and a stickler for detail and therefore for me when looking for a good designer it is not just about finding some one who has a flair for the "soft furnishings and finishes". For me a designer also has to have a technical understanding of how things work and be able to produce quality drawings of their designs. That's why when we tenedered for a designer Nicola stood out head and shoulders above the competition as she had both of these qualities. She was also was very good at managing us and helping push the design boundaries of what we would have normally thought was acceptable which meant we got a result beyond our expectations. 2 years ago Nicola lead the design on a new basement and refurbishment of our london home. She is now working on a major redevelopment of a country house for us and we have been impressed with how her design skills are not only suited to the modern urban london style of property but also to a country retreat. We would therefore be delighted to recommend Nicola.

We have worked with Nicola on two projects. A basement and house refurbishment in London and a country house in Sussex. She has advised on the architectural design of all rooms, including bathroom and kitchen layouts, through to intricacies of staircases and detailed features. A pleasure to work with.

From my very first introductory meeting with Nicola to the present - three years after my project finished, Nicola has been nothing but extremely professional and totally responsive and committed in our interactions. She made some excellent practical improvements on our architects designs and was an invaluable in her advice and support on site when interacting with the building team. She introduced us to some fantastic suppliers, negotiated on our behalf and always grasped what we wanted and made excellent suggestions for finishes and then furniture and lighting choices at the end. She went the extra mile for us from start to finish We couldn't fault her it was a pleasure to work with her and we would recommend her wholeheartedly to any future client.

I have worked with Nicola Hicks Designs on several of her projects.
I do work work with lots of interior designers and I have found Nicola to be one of the best I have worked with. She is really good at what she does and that reflects in the joinery designs I make for her projects and seeing the finished homes she works on.
