HI, I’M NICHOLE DAVIS

You don’t need another trend-driven design studio—you need someone who truly gets what real life is like.

I know how overwhelming it can feel to juggle work, family, and running a home. Decision fatigue is real. That’s why I started FBD Interiors: to make the design process simpler, less stressful, and genuinely supportive—especially for women carrying the mental load.

I believe your home should simplify life, not complicate it. My approach is all about creating spaces that support your routines, ease the day-to-day pressure, and adapt as your family grows. No one-size-fits-all trends here—just honest guidance, practical steps, and designs made to last.

we’re here to help the…

We’re here for busy parents, future-proofers, and homebodies who want more than just a pretty picture.

For those juggling school drop-offs, dinner rush, and work calls—yet still dreaming of a home that feels calm, functional, and unmistakably yours.

We design for how you really live, not just for show. Our mission is to strip away overwhelm, lighten the mental load, and build a home that gives back—so you can breathe easier, connect deeper, and actually enjoy the everyday.

7 Things I know to be true

  1. A kitchen that doesn’t work will never feel welcoming for long.

  2. You’re not disorganised—your home just isn’t designed around your life (yet).

  3. You shouldn’t have to juggle tradies, timelines, and family dinner all at once.

  4. Trends come and go—great design grows with you.

  5. More choices don’t mean better results—they mean burnout.

  6. A well-designed space should feel like a deep, calming breath.

  7. You’re already doing enough—your home should support you, not hold you back.
