Welcome to Sleek-chic Interiors, Founded in 2013 by Nicole Sage, a passion interior designer and interiors writer who has undertaken a series of interior design short courses at KLC school. Nicole originally studied International Business Management at Southampton Solent University & TAMK, graduating with a first class honours degree, before moving into interior design and interiors writing.
Nicole and Sleek-chic Interiors has been featured as an authority on a number of online publications including Pinterest, Ideal Home, The Express and Zoopla.
Through interior design short courses at KLC School of Design, on-hands training and almost ten years writing this online interiors publication, she have developed a wealth of knowledge about interiors to help create spaces that fuse form and function, whilst curating unique spaces that can provide a welcoming and inviting sanctuary from everyday life.
My interior design style is constantly changing as I evolve, but I would describe my signature style as coastal inspired, and transitional. I really enjoy a good earthy, rustic interior too.
I adore soft, neutral colour palettes that can be built up with natural pieces for a soothing scheme that connects me to the natural world around us.
The result is an ultra relaxed and casual interior that’s refined and stylish. I do believe interiors shouldn’t have to be over engineered.
My favourite paint shades are Farrow and Ball De Nimes, Oxford Stone and Sulking Room Pink, but they’re constantly changing!
You are a product of your environment, so always make it a beautiful one!

What Got You Into Interior Design and Writing About It?
I have always had an eye for style, starting with fashion and putting outfits together from a young age. I always enjoyed putting together beautiful outfits that made me feel good, and as I’ve gotten older and purchased my own properties and renovated them, my inherent passion for fashion naturally evolved into my interiors.
From my very first flat, to a complete home renovation that I styled from scratch, I really learnt more of the art surrounding interior design, how to layout rooms, organise trades and the many lessons that were learnt along the way. I’m constantly learning.
The writing part? Well, it’s a fusion of my love for writing and passion for beautiful interiors, arming others with the knowledge I wish I knew before I embarked on the process of designing my own home.
