It all begins with an idea

from a design, arts & business background - claire pushed aside the corporate business world to create - i am nomad - a shop curated home concept in 2017 which in turn threw her into the world of interior design.

Claire’s love of the 1970’s mid century style has curved a very distinct path for her own personal style - sourcing unusual mid century furniture and incorporating it into the modern world .

as an interior design studio, we believe in listening to our clients - at the end of the day its thier home where they will live - we just help bring thier ideas to life and inspire them with design that will set thier home aside from the rest.

  • Claire and her team not only offer a fantastic service but deliver an incredible design and finish. Claire is meticulous in her planning of the design and takes all aspects of the space into consideration. She has an outstanding vision which brings a space to life while working to budget and the clients specifications. She is an integral part of my business now and I would highly recommend her and her amazing team.

  • Working with Claire is an absolute pleasure! She listens carefully to our likes and dislikes and always finds a way to bring our ideas to life. We find making decisions difficult as there are so many choices, this is where Claire’s expertise shows. She does the hard work for you and then presents you with a few choices keeping with your style, taste and budget. Claire is so talented and she has expertly helped us select fabrics, carpets, paints, furniture, lighting and found items of loveliness for us. She has an excellent bank of tradespeople who have re upholstered furniture, headboards and created bespoke lamp shapes for us. We could not recommend her highly enough.

  • We cannot praise Claire highly enough, we are delighted with the outcome of our bathroom designs; from room layout, material sourcing, colour consultancy and additionally sourcing lighting styles for our flat. We did our discovery consultations from abroad on video and she instantly understood the direction we wanted to go in and helped us make some bolder choices and select finer finishes. Claire went above and beyond being onsite with our contractors which gave us great reassurance and overall provided a fantastic design service!

  • Claire was recommended to us when we bought our first house. She has a unique ability to really listen and genuinely takes the time to understand what you would like your home to look and feel like. She keeps within budgets and goes the extra mile. Her fabric and colour choices are spot on. She sourced vintage pieces of furniture, lighting, beds, rugs and then styled both rooms for us. Her attention to detail is outstanding and exceeded our expectations. Claire is always easy to get a hold of any kept us updated with timescales. Her help has been invaluable to novices like ourselves. We now love the way our living room and bedroom looks and feels. We look forward to working with her on future projects in our home. We could not recommend highly enough.

  • From the very start Claire was helpful, understanding, and knowledgeable. She shouldered the stress and did all the heavy lifting, which left me to concentrate on other projects. I'm very pleased with the results and their after-care service is awesome. I have been made to feel more as a friend than a customer.

  • I consulted with Nomad Design when looking for a colour refresh for garden flat in Kelvinbridge. I had ideas re main colours but really useful to get that professional input especially when balancing colour choices with neutrals - all of which worked really well. As such - having previously consulted & been very happy with supply and installation of additional radiators I chose to engage their recommended painters which I couldn’t rate highly enough ! Everything was really well organised with great communication & minimal disruption - all left beautifully tidy on return each evening. The guys are absolute perfectionists & did amazing work on some damp proofing issues on bay window shutters too. Really quite a transformation & definitely went above and beyond.
