About Us
Welcome to Steele Design Solutions, where the art of interior design is not just about creating spaces—it’s about crafting environments that echo your personal story. Nikki Steele, our esteemed owner and design maestro, brings to the table a vibrant energy and a heartfelt passion for transforming properties to resonate with your inner essence.
Nikki’s mantra, “details matter and your interior design should be unique to you,” —it’s a promise to help you articulate your narrative through the eloquent language of texture, textiles, and materials. At Steele Design Solutions, we don’t just decorate spaces; we tailor them to embody your vibrancy, ensuring your aesthetics are a perfect match to your essence and vitality.
Inherited Inspiration: Nikki’s legacy of design prowess was kindled by watching her great grandmother, a designer in Fort Lauderdale in the 80s. While Nikki was too young to participate then, the inspiration drawn from her grandmother’s flair—from luxury fabrics to the art of florals and textiles—was profound. This exposure to the finer things in life honed Nikki’s exceptional eye for detail, now reflected in the phenomenally cohesive designs Steele Design Solutions is known for.
Expertise and Education: Nikki’s journey into the depths of interior design began at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh, where she mastered the ins and outs of textiles, drafting, and color theory. Her career path led her through Naples’ oldest drapery workrooms as a project coordinator, where she discovered her passion for personalizing interiors. With a history in upholstery and kitchen and bath businesses, Nikki’s expertise is not just theoretical but deeply practical, giving her a comprehensive understanding of the renovation process.
Today, as a Hunter Douglas Dealer and window treatment connoisseur, Nikki delights in enabling self-expression. She understands the power of a space that vibrantly reflects its inhabitant—when your environment is in sync with your energy, life becomes more enjoyable.
Beyond Design: Nikki is a devoted family woman with three children, an advocate for active living, and a fervent admirer of Florida’s natural beauty. Her life in Naples has cultivated a deep-seated love for the outdoors, shared with her family through adventures and the simple joy of walking their dog, Hannah.
Steele Design Solutions is not just about breaking the mold of cookie-cutter design—it’s about bringing forth the beauty, vitality, and essence of Naples’ transformation. Nikki invites you to experience the warmth of her hometown’s Southern Hospitality and to embrace a style that harmonizes with your soul as you lay new roots in the Sunshine State. Join us in creating a space that isn’t just where you live—it’s who you are.
