In the Design Industry Since: Conception. God gave me “The Eye”!
Inspiration to Pursue a Design Career: The importance of great design cannot be understated. It showcases what were once your dreams and aspirations and is now the living testimony of YOUR American Dream realized. For this reason, I consider my job as a Designer a great honor.
Favorite Design Tip: The Peace Comes With COMPLETION.
Best Advice to Clients: In the words of Jerry Maguire, “Help me help you,” and be sure to have a little nosh before our appointments. We get way more done and have way more fun when you’re fueled and ready to make decisions (and not hangry!). #whenyouknowyouknow
My Design Aesthetic: While a modern aesthetic is my strong suit, I have a tremendous appreciation for the Arts at large, and love incorporating a little flash of the unexpected from different eras and genres to ensure your space is not only jaw-droppingly beautiful, but is also one that feels great to live in!
3 Words that Describe Me: I’m a Gemini…which one of us do you want to know about? lololol
From the moment we walked into the store, ordered the furniture and received the delivery,
every aspect of our experience was professional and top notch. Nichole DeVincentis was
very knowledgeable, professional and patient as we made our choices. She has a
wonderful ability to pull colors and fabrics together for a great look.

Nichole in the Naperville store is wonderful. She helped us with reupholstering 2 chairs &
matching them to a new couch. The couch was delivered today & it’s just lovely with our
chairs. We will definitely use you for other things in the future.
