Introduction: Hi, I am an interior stylist from The Chic Home. Being a decor enthusiast I am passionate about showing people that it's possible to live in a home (even if you rent) that feels stylish and beautiful while still being functional. without spending tons of money or time to achieve so. My style is mid-century bohemian with a flair for Scandinavian minimalism. I believe in some good DIYs and designs to make the space come alive. I am a huge fan of flea markets, antique shops, and thrift stores. I believe in designing a home that is effortlessly unique and shares your story; a home that is warm and inviting, and that truly reflects who you are!

NIshita was great! She really listened to my interior design needs, 'got' the project, and provided suggestions about how to style/what to purchase that were within budget and fast. Thank you NIshita!

Nishita helped us with Color Consultation for our 5 bed 4 bath ~ 4000sq ft home. Below is our experience working with her. Before hiring: I came to Nishita with less than a week deadline and she accommodated me even though it is last minute. She was clear and crisp in communication over phone, email and text messages and explained to me the different packages and pricing models. Then I paid part of color consultation package and she got started on my project. After hiring: On the day of the in person visit she was punctual and patiently listened to all my needs. She explained the color and finish variations which can be done throughout the house so that it would have a cohesive flow. She took all my requests and came up with a customized plan for interior and cabinet painting for the whole house. She sent me the colors over the weekend so that I can swatch them out and see how it would look in the house in different lighting. I also reached out to her for carpet selection. Even though we couldn’t make the timings work for the carpet appointment given my tight deadlines, Nishita texted me different examples which would go well with the color scheme of the house. After I picked up the carpet swatches, she also helped me zero in on the final selection. Color Plan Delivery: On the day of delivery, she sent me the detailed color plan guide with different mood boards which helped me envision how my house would look like. Her guide was so clear that I was able to directly forward the document to my painter. I cannot wait to see the final product. Nishita’s vision and skills are exceptional, her execution flawless and her customer service is outstanding. We would recommend her to anyone and would definitely reach out to her to avail her design services in future.

Details: Design of 3 - 4 rooms • Kitchen • Bedroom(s) • Bathroom(s) • Office space • 2,500 - 3,000 sq ft • Color palette / paint selection • Furniture selection • Space planning / layout • Flooring selection • Contemporary • Midcentury Modern • Craftsman / Farmhouse • Coastal • Eclectic • Industrial • My home, venue, etc.

We approached Nishita to help us for interior paint color. She took time to visit us, understand our requirements, understand the layout of the home, natural light, orientation and other aspects before giving us her opinion. Through our conversations, she turned out to be very knowledgeable and professional. The end result turned out to be amazing. We then approached her carpet choices and she proved to us again that we made the right choice by hiring her for help. Overall our experience has been amazing. I will definitely approach her for future design projects and would highly recommend her.

Details: Design of 3 - 4 rooms • Living room • Dining room • Bedroom(s) • Bathroom(s) • Office space • Kitchen • 2,000 - 2,500 sq ft • Color palette / paint selection • Contemporary • Midcentury Modern • My home, venue, etc.

I had to choose paint colors for our home at the last minute. I called Nishita and she was very willing to help me at the last minute. She came to our home and looked at all the rooms, understood what our preferences are, then went back and sent us not only a design pallet to choose from but also her recommendations. And looking back after 3 months, all of us love the colors she recommended. I'm glad she was able to help us. I highly recommend her.
