Thank you Emily Moorman and Homes & Gardens for including me in this article on color drenching!
'Color drenching is a great way to quickly expand the feeling of a space,' says Nadia. 'In this project, we chose a custom wallcovering for the ceiling to get the color-drenching look with a unique blend of wallpaper, paint, and furniture. The sofa and rug carry the color throughout the room making it feel cohesive and elevated.'

Thank you to Better Homes & Gardens and Colleen Sullivan for featuring me in 'The Absolute Coziest Bedroom Trends to Expect in 2025.' The bedroom is where each day begins and ends—a space that should be as restful as it is inspiring.
Bedrooms will skew towards a more purposeful aesthetic in the new year, with designers filling bedrooms with furniture and accessories their clients have a connection to, colors with meaning, and textures that bring comfort. “It will be about personally reflecting the person who lives and sleeps in that room,” says Nadia Watts

Thank you Real Simple and Hannah Baker, for including me in your 2025 decor trends piece! I am excited to share four inspirations for giving your space a fresh new look in the year ahead.
Here are a few excerpts from the piece:
According to Nadia Watts of Nadia Watts Interior Design, round rugs are on the way out. Instead, try something a little more unique, she says. "Rugs of all shapes and sizes, and especially custom-designed rugs specifically for your room, are on the rise. Think oblongs, infinity loops, animal shapes, and other less traditional options."
All new everything doesn't quite have the same charm as mixing things up. Instead, Watts suggests upcycling older pieces by renewing antique furniture, using old items in new ways (for example, a thoroughly cleaned vintage ashtray as a catchall), and recovering upholstered pieces with special vintage fabrics.
"Let’s face it, we spend a lot of time in our kitchens. Your kitchen is the heart of the home, so make sure it’s not boring. Mixing materials is in for 2025, think color mixing, material mixing, and metal mixing!"

Thank you, Homes & Gardens and Emily Moorman, for including me in your article on 2025's trending neutrals!
'A crisp white paint is ideal for ceilings and trim and also works well for kitchen cabinets. Choose a white with a touch of cream for more warmth and depth. I love Benjamin Moore's White Dove and Cloud White. White is great for making neutrals pop and works well with gray, whereas cream pairs well with color,' explains Denver-based designer interior designer Nadia Watts.

Thank you to Martha Stewart and Heather Bien for featuring me in this piece on embracing bold colors!
Once you've gone bold, keep going. In this room, the vivid peacock teal doesn't stop with the walls; it extends to the sofa, the rug, and the ceiling. "By incorporating two shades that work well with the wall color, we brought the hue from the walls up to the ceiling, effectively enveloping the space," says Nadia Watts
"Start with a multicolored rug and play off the wall with the floor by selecting a bold color from the rug for the walls," says Watts. "Being a little unexpected will create a powerful result."

Grateful to be featured in Homes & Gardens - Thank you to Emily Moorman for including me in her piece on 2025's must-try 'in-between' paint shades!
'I have always been drawn to “in-between” colors and Benjamin Moore’s Stained Glass is the perfect in-between color. It just so happens that my two favorite colors are green and blue and Stained Glass is the ideal combination of the two.'
'The gemstone teal feels luxurious and elevated, and the muted tone brings it down to earth and allows it to work well with an array of other colors; bold and impactful while also being serene. A bit green, a bit blue, it’s the right combination for any style.’

Thank you to House Beautiful and Kate McGregor for the feature—I love sharing my insights with such a talented group!
‘I love the many rounded-edge options now available. No longer is kitchen hardware square or rectangular with sharp edges… I am also seeing more historical and antique hardware emerge in residential projects. And I find vintage hardware hard to beat in terms of its quality and craftsmanship. There is nothing better than sifting through some old wood panels or cabinet drawers at an antique store and coming across some gorgeous old hardware.’ —Nadia Watts.

It's time to discuss trends for the upcoming year! Thank you House Beautiful and Kate McGregor for asking our expert advice for trends we will continue to see in 2025.
Stained Glass - “I’ve always been drawn to color—the richer the better. I am the great-great-granddaughter of Louis Comfort Tiffany of Tiffany Studios and Glass, and Tiffany glass is full of classic gem tones and deep concentrated colors and those color palettes have been an inspiration for me throughout my career. Colors may come and go, however deeply saturated gem tones seem to always look chic. I have always believed and continue to believe that you cannot go wrong with the right mix of old and new. That perfect vintage item mixed in with modern and sleek.” —Nadia Watts

'Blue is a classic color that works well with a variety of styles and finishes. Choose a light and bright neutral countertop to balance the blue. I chose a mix of materials to compliment the blue cabinetry, from chrome to antique brass, traditional to modern, the beauty of blue is that it's a classic color with traditional elements that can also span the eras of design seamlessly,' explains Nadia.
