Interiors: Houston Home of Kristen Nix

Interiors

Nov 26

Here’s a quick peek into the Houston home of up-and-coming designer Kristen Nix. She mixes high, low, and varying styles throughout the space while maintaining the integrity of its early-60’s architecture. For example, she defies suggestions to paint the natural brick and leaves windows bare. Luckily, an outer wall adds much needed privacy.

(Above) Chic accessories are stacked in the dining room. When asked to choose guests for a dream dinner party, Nix lists “Tory Burch, Kelly Hoppen, Celerie Kemble, Aerin Lauder, Randy Powers and my mom.” (Below) Kristen plays with her two-year-old son, Ryan.

Desiré is a designer, blogger, and lover of all things glamorous. Though primarily a self-taught decorator, Desiré studied at The Art Institute, where she honed a distinct aesthetic largely influenced by the Modern Glamour movement, the theme of her popular design blog, Sukio. Not only is she considered a "closet fashionista," discreetly stashing handbags and shoes whenever possible, but, as an MIT graduate, she’s also an undercover nerd. Fashion, nerdom, and several years as a Washingtonian have combined to shape her unique perspective on interior design.
