Nia has been designing residential spaces since 1997 and was a founding Director of both Studio Ohm and Cloud Design Studios. She established Nia Morris Studio in 2016 and it is now a busy practice based in London and the Cotswolds specialising in residential interior design. Nia and her team are great advocates of an eclectic approach – mixing vintage with new, a cool, linear interior with a big rococo statement piece, a monochrome colour scheme with a single splash of bright colour. This is not an “anything goes” approach but a carefully considered assessment of how pieces work together.  This is apparent from the end results which feel cohesive and deliberate and anything but random.

“Our shared love of design was clear from the start. We met as actors and when we joined forces our lives took a different direction. We bought our first home together, postcode ending 2LG and our friends came up with a business name that stuck. Gradually, design began to take over our lives and now we live and breathe it, believing that good design can change your life.”
