Client Stories: Home Library Design in Houston, TX
All of us have different wants and needs when it comes to our homes, but finding someone’s story that resonates with you (even just a little bit) can help you feel less alone or stuck. This is why we decided to begin a series called Client Stories. This collection of insider information on our projects and what led each client to decide on working with NKDG is meant to show you that there is an answer to your design dilemma(s). Enjoy!
Home Library Design in Houston, TX
CLIENT’S NEEDS:
Our client had dreamed of having a library in her home since she was a little girl. This sacred space needs to honor her ancestors and provide a space for her to relax while doing what she loves – reading.
PROJECT SCOPE:
Create a home library full or personality that can be open to the home yet closed off when needed.

- Use a bold and luxurious color palette to bring our client’s personality to life
- Use custom shelving to provide a beautiful place for our client’s books and personal items
- Use comfortable and lush seating so our client has options for where she wants to read
- Create a gallery wall to pay respect to our client’s ancestors

CLIENTS’ WORDS:
“The thing I liked most about working with Nikki and her team was the systems in they had in place. I’m a systems person in my own business, so I appreciated that I never had to wonder where we were at in the project. There was always an email or an update in the system I can log into. It’s almost like Uber for design. You know where your cars at any point in time. I felt like Nikki and her team provided me with that same level of certainty that things were moving along.”
