H&D:
How did you develop a passion for interior design?
N:
It was through a birthday gift, an aquarium, that I gained an interest in interior design. I still have the aquarium. It’s used only as a decoration now. It’s designed to feature an eclectic theme with a little vintage wooden house and a few safari toys.
Going back to the topic on how I first developed an interest in interior design, I recalled enjoying looking at an aquarium in a vet’s clinic. I borrowed their ideas and then added my own touches. That was when I begin to wonder how many other spaces I could transform. At the age of 14, I started re-arranging the furniture in the house.

How does music and writing inspire you as an interior designer?
N:
Music has been part of my life since I bought my very first EP in 1975. I listen to certain types of music when I’m writing or working on a design project. It provides me with the inspiration I need.
