Interior Motives

Magnificent insight into design, colors, my vision, and costs! I couldn't be more thankful for Nicole's talent! If you're looking to build new or remodel, contact Nicole for your tiling needs! My new place is still a work in progress, but here is a sneak peek of two of my bathrooms!

I've worked closely with Nicole for over 5 years. She takes great care of all of her customers, and it's obvious they all love working with her. It's also wonderful to see how many of the vendors she works with adore her. She's organized and professional, and her cheery demeanor is an added bonus.

Nicole Jackson is one of the nicest professionals I have ever worked with! She’s a great listener and takes her time offering advice based on a need-to-know basis. I had so many various questions for her and she helped break them down so I wasn’t overwhelmed. You can tell she has a passion for her work and cares about her clients. Would highly recommend!

I worked with Nicole on a kitchen/main floor remodel and I could not be happier with the results! I had some basic ideas about what I wanted the space to look like, but with her guidance I was able to achieve a result even better than I dreamed of. What I appreciate most about Nicole is that she helps you create a space that suits your personal taste and style, and that works for your lifestyle. She doesn't just design a space based on the latest trends - she helps you create something that is personal for you. There are so many details on a project the size of ours, and she helped me tie everything together so that it looks cohesive. I know that my kitchen will look as new and fresh in 10 years as it does today. I also appreciate that she helps you work within your budget, spending money in the areas where it needs to be spent and saving money in other areas. She was also very helpful in coordinating the contractors working on the job so that everything flowed well. Nicole is great to work with and I enjoyed our time together on this project. I will use Nicole's services and expertise on every project that I have going forward. I highly recommend her!

Despite desperately needing it, even just THINKING about remodeling our second floor gave me anxiety. Who do I hire? What is my style, I mean, I like EVERYTHING I see on HGTV? What if I pick the wrong materials? What if “this” doesn’t go with “that”? What if I regret spending ALL THAT MONEY?! And then I met Nicole Jackson. Anxiety be-gone. While I was getting estimates from a few general contractors my sister referred me to Nicole. Nicole came to our house for a consultation. We walked through our second floor that contained three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and this very under-utilized bonus space. Nicole could see our vision to create a master bedroom en-suite but also started asking, “What about doing this or doing that?” She gave ideas I never thought about, and she was right. With a large rolodex or proven suppliers and tradespeople, Nicole introduced us to another contractor, Chandler Soto to GC the project. He gave us a bid and although it wasn’t the lowest, he provided details that other contractors didn’t. That made me more comfortable. It was a huge bonus too that Chandler and Nicole had already been working together professionally for a long time. We were ready to go. I studied so many designs on the internet and sent gobs of images to Nicole. She got a feel for what I liked (it really wasn’t EVERYTHING) and guided me through final selections of materials. Nicole got to know me too so when I was a little nervous about choosing a less-than-boring quartz, she said, “Have fun with it!” And again, she was right. Every day I look at our quartz countertop, I smile. I love it. Nicole is trustworthy, FUNNY, dependable, and KNOWS DESIGN. She has trusted suppliers and contractors. She’s a great counselor when you’re stuck on making decisions. When we remodel our kitchen and dining room, she will be by side again.

I have worked with Nicole for two years on a new Modern Mountain home. I could have not done this 12,000 sq. ft. home without Nicole's help. She helped me long before the home's design was completed between myself and the general contractor. I needed more than average clients because I am single and needed help with color coordination outdoors and indoors. The style of this home is not one typically seen in Wisconsin. It was not a problem for Nicole. She knew how to guide me with selections of materials, and the furnishings are beautiful. You know you have a beautiful home when your sub-contractors continually tell you this is the most beautiful and cool house they ever worked on. Nicole was by my side with all of the visits to contractors and with product selections. I wish I could show more than six photos of this home. My friends have all loved seeing this fabulous home. You are greeted in the foyer with a 1250 lb. slab of quartzite hanging on the wall! It is 65,000,000 years old from a mine in Brazil. 5 bedrooms, 6 1/2 baths, each with their own unique tile. Walls with hidden rooms and furniture that is truly quality. My touch was adding a Guitar Wall. There is so much more. I've had parties with as many of 120 people at the house and my guests had nothing but glowing comments and wanted to know who my designer was. I am glad that at those parties I could actually introduce them to Nicole. If you work with Nicole, have her bring you over here so you can see her work for yourself.

Do you think hiring an interior designer is only for the wealthy? Are you tired of buying home decor pieces only to end up returning them? Have you tried every trendy paint color to find that none of them work in your space? Well, that was me until I was blessed to find Nicole. What started out as a paint color consult turned into so much more! I loved the colors she chose so much that I ended up hiring Nicole to help me pick out everything for my bathroom remodel. After scouring the internet for hours and hours over months and months and buying and returning tile samples, Nicole helped me pick out everything in a little over an hour. She saved me so much time and mental energy, and I absolutely LOVE the end result! This led to her helping me with light fixtures, drapes, art, rugs, and some new furniture. I now have a calm, relaxing, and cohesive space. Nicole really listened to what I was trying to accomplish. She was wonderful to work with every step of the way. She gave me ideas that I would have never thought of, and she really took my opinion to heart to find just what I was looking for. If you are looking for an interior designer who will deliver what you want when you can’t seem to get there on your own, then look no further.

We loved working with Nicole and her team. They really kept to the schedule they laid out and were very professional throughout the project. The results were amazing and we've gotten so many compliments. Looking forward to starting the next project!

Having moved into a brand new house without back splash, lots of white walls and no idea where to start, Nicole was incredibly helpful in helping us to pick out tiles and paint colors. She was also very helpful brainstorming ideas for wall decor. She also provided referrals to contractors who could execute the projects in a timely fashion at a reasonable price. We will definitely work with her again.

Nicole helped us with a whole house remodel for a home we purchased in Lake Country. This was enormous project that literally changed out all the flooring, woodwork, interior and exterior paint, all the bathrooms, the entire kitchen, and the fireplace. Nicole was a pleasure to work with, she nudged us in the right direction when needed and ensured that the color palette throughout the house was well coordinated. We absolutely love the result and receive many compliments. We wholeheartedly endorse and recommend Nicole!

Nicole just guided me through a master bath remodel and a guest bath remodel and I am so happy with the finished products! I can’t believe how amazing my bathrooms look! I could not have done it without her. She helped me hone my general ideas into a specific design plan, and she works with a fantastic group of contractors to execute your vision for the room. She really listens to your opinions and helps you find materials to create the room that you want. She empowers you to make the decisions, and relying on her expertise I felt comfortable making those decisions. She also helps you create the room you want within your budget. I didn’t know where to shop for materials, and she guided me through that process. I’m sure that I saved a lot of money by purchasing materials from businesses that she was familiar with. She was fun to work with and I’m continuing to work with her remodeling other parts of my home. I highly recommend her - she’s a skilled professional.

Nicole is absolutely fantastic. I moved into a new house with an unfinished basement and was a little overwhelmed with what to do. Nicole not only helped with the design concept, she brought a contractor to review the space and walk through options. The project came in on time and on budget. I couldn't be more pleased with the space and the caliber of craftsmanship of the contractor and sub-contractors. I would highly recommend her services large or small. Thank you so much Nicole for helping design my dream basement!
