WHAT THEY SAID...

  • New Build Selections and Styling

    "We recently started our new build on Coolum Parade, Newport, and anyone who has been through this process knows how overwhelming it can be. Making major decisions - like interior and exterior colour selections - so early on can be daunting, and we often question whether we were making the right choices. With so many ideas swirling in our heads, we knew we needed expert guidance. That's where Nikki from Manea Interiors came in. She made the entire process seamless, taking our ideas and combining them with her expertise to create a cohesive, stylish design that truly reflects our vision. Thanks to Nikki, we feel confident that our new home will be everything we dreamed of. She absolutely nailed the brief, and we couldn't recommend her more highly."

    Deb - Newport

  • Interior Design & Styling

    "Oh my goodness, Nikki is incredible! From the first meet, providing our ideas and Nikki sourcing possible options to then seeing the finished product, the whole process was smooth and enjoyable. Nikki's guidance, support and help on move in day was truly incredible, and we get to enjoy the amazing results! Nikki was able to provide us with an excellent installer for the storage options and we've had compliments on the look and feel, so thank you for everything Nikki, we are definitely living our dream."

    Deb - Scarborough

  • Interior Design & Styling

    "We found Nikki through a google search, we decided to meet to discuss designing the interior of our new home. We felt confident that Nikki would be able to achieve our brief, which was to start with a blank canvas and give our new beachfront apartment a stylish coastal theme with an emphasis on comfort. Nikki kept us updated throughout on colours, design and selections. As soon as our property settled Nikki swung into action bringing in all the items and setting them up as per her designs. Eventually the grand reveal, we were so impressed; a real WOW MOMENT. We now have a stunning home, so livable and comfortable. The compliments we receive are a testament to Nikki's design and style ability. We are very happy that we decided to appoint Nikki as our designer and stylist, her peaceful personality made the process that we initially feared so easy for us. We have no hesitation in recommending Nikki for your next project."

  • Kitchen Design

    "Nikki was an absolute pleasure to work with. She helped redesign our 30 year old kitchen. There was a couple of real difficult design challenges but Nikki came up with a design solution, which worked out perfectly. Nikki liaised with all the trades on our behalf throughout the entire process, which was a great relief to us, and provided us with a stress free journey. All the colours and design elements, from tiling to bench tops to appliances, work seamlessly together and look fabulous. Thank you Nikki, you are amazing."

    Steve - Brisbane

  • Interior Design & Styling

    "We recenlty moved into our new home and are absolutely loving it! I can highly recommend Nikki Hawkins of Manea Interior Design and Styling. We needed a whole house furniture reno as our young children outgrew our current furniture. Nikki organised everything from the start to finish! She took the stress out of shopping at various shops and arranged for all furniture to be put together and placed in its correct spot. Do yourself a huge favour and make contact with Nikki."

    Will & Lyndal - Brisbane

  • Virtual Styling & Property Styling

    “Nikki and Manea Interior Design & Styling helped me to both style my house to sell and to style the new place I moved into. Nikki is amazing. I have no doubt that it was her styling of my house that resulted it in selling in 5 days (even before the first open home). Nikki then helped me to style my new unit. She listened to my wants and came up with a design that worked for both the space and my daughter and I. I would highly recommend Nikki.”

    Lynsey - Brisbane

  • One off Design Consultation

    "Nikki was very approachable and gave me the direction and practical information I needed to improve the interior of my house. Good ideas and advice."

    Natalie -Brisbane

  • Interior Colour consultation

    "Nikki did a wonderful job at helping us pick out a paint colour for a feature wall and a colour palette for our open plan lounge, dining and kitchen, with the information she supplied we are able to make it all flow and brighten everything up, now our house looks like a home not a rental. Couldn’t recommend Nikki enough! Thank you Nikki."

    Corinne - Brisbane

  • Virtual Styling

    "Wow! I’ve just had the most amazing zoom meeting with Nikki from Manea Interior Design. I’ve been going around in circles trying to come up with a look for our beach house and was beginning to feel very overwhelmed. Nikki was able to calm my mind and provided a professional, creative and knowledgeable solution to my challenge. I love the Coastal Luxe concept she came up with. She took in everything we talked about and came up with the most gorgeous (yet practical) design that I am so happy with. Thanks Nikki!"

    Erin - New Zealand

  • Virtual Styling

    "I engaged Nikki to work on the interior styling of my rental property as I was relocating from overseas. She was able to help us transform our living space through her e-Design service and helped us greatly in settling into our new home. Thank you so much for doing what you do, we love the end results."

    Alexa - Sydney

  • Virtual Styling

    "Using the e-design package, Nikki built a cool, funky living room layout for me. The process was quick and easy, with two directions of style to choose from. I now have clickable links to purchase the items as time and money permits. Very happy."
