About Us

I create spaces that reflect your tastes and needs, turning your home or office into an oasis in the midst of your hectic world. In my view, that goal requires a rapt attention to detail, a business-like approach, and an eye for what is right for the space and you—both visually and functionally. It may involve incorporating existing, beloved pieces into the plan, changing the fabrics and colors, assessing proportion and functionality, or bringing in new furniture. Many things go into making the room perfect….let’s work together to make that room something special.

Nancy handled the design of our office buildout. She did a magnificent job nailing the feel we wanted our clients and employees to have when in our new office. We get daily collliments on the decor, and the property manager even routinely shows off our spacebtonprospective tenants.

Nancy patiently sat down with me to determine new fabrics for my dining and living rooms. Both rooms were tired and in need of some brightening up. Both rooms open to the pool and I wanted that Florida lifestyle reflected in the colors of the fabrics. Nancy tied the new fabrics into the colors and patterns I have in an inherited oriental rug and artwork; coordinating the dining and living rooms visually with the rest of the home. The patterns we selected use bold color and a mix of pattern to add liveliness to the space. I'll send pics when all the work is done. Cannot wait!

Nancy helped us make our newly-renovated home perfect in its decor. We moved from the Washington, D.C. area to Florida, and wanted guidance in working our existing furnishings into a "Florida look". Nancy helped us with the master bedroom, selecting bedding, rugs and fabrics for pillows and window treatments. She also designed custom window treatments for the dining room and living room that tied the two rooms together and visually aligned two windows in the living room that were not the same height from the ceiling. Our house now has a new, Florida look that is so comfortable for us.

Nancy is a creative and practical designer that adapts to her customer's style, home and budget. She solves problems and has resources outside the traditional scope of design. She helped our family in our former condo, then transitioning and growing into our home in Roscoe Village. She struck the right balance for me and my wife while also making the home comfortable for our young son.

They have done two projects for me. The first was remote: reconstruction and decorating after a flood. The second was in Chicago. Great job managing all the details, including some particular quirks with my large building.

Thank you, Janet. It's always a pleasure to work with you, whether it's via our Design From Afar services, or in person!

This is the second project that I have done with Bon Brise Design and I loved the experience and especially the result (again). Nancy saved me tons of time, provided great options and when I did have design ideas she made sure to address my needs immediately with new creative options. No detail is too small for her to make perfect and she is the ultimate professional in how she works with her customers. My new bathroom is now exactly the spa oasis I wanted. A day doesn't go by that I don't think how I love it. Thanks Nancy!

Thank you Lisa. We so enjoyed working with you again, and are thrilled that you love your new ensuite master bathroom!

We have worked with Nancy on two different projects (Party of 5 in the West Loop and Family Friendly on Lake Michigan) and we were thrilled with her work on both. What I particularly like about working with Nancy is that she's adaptable--she was more than happy to deal with our willingness to spend on certain items but not on others. She advocated where she thought the extra money was important, but happily helped us purchase accessories from Pier One and bookshelves from Ikea so that we could put our dollars where they mattered most. Both of the projects had challenges that she managed impeccably and both times we had a hard deadline that she met. She was creative, but also responsive to our needs and preferences. I love that she is so much more pragmatic than other artsy-types I've worked with. Just a joy all around! Thanks, Nancy!

Bonne Brise was fantastic! Nancy handled everything and helped me to create a wonderful bathroom renovation which stayed true to the look and feel of my 1920's vintage high rise condo building along Chicago's lakefront. Subway tiles, paneled wainscoting, hexagonal floor tiles, gorgeous over-the-top (but well worth it for the efficiency) sink with chrome base and glass shelf. I would highly recommend Bonne Brise. Normally I have done 100% of all the design work and acted as GC for my kitchen renovation and other projects in many of the homes I have had. I simply did not have the time and decided to trust Nancy. best decision I have ever made. The money spent was well worth it to get the best products and contractor at affordable prices. In the end, she paid for her fee by the money she saved me.

Hi Ann,

I just revisited the glowing testimonial you wrote on my Houzz profile and I wanted to formally thank you! Not only was it fabulous and fun to work with you, your review touched on some of the most important factors in choosing a designer. I've no doubt your kind words will contribute to my success.

All the best,
N

I've photographed numerous interior design projects for Nancy. She combines her excellent attention to detail and intuitive design skills to help her clients visualize the final results. She goes the extra step, providing collaborative, one-to-one service that help put her customers at ease when a project may disrupt their home or office for several weeks. Her passion for what she does is evident while working with her during a recent two day location shoot. Nancy is great to work with and focused on providing the highest quality work possible for her clients. Rolfe Hokanson RAHokanson Photography

Hi Rolfe,

I just revisited the glowing testimonial you wrote on my Houzz profile and I wanted to formally thank you! I've so enjoyed working together and am delighted that we’ll have more photo shoots coming our way, thanks in part to your kind words!

I talked to John this week and was so glad to hear he has a photo shoot set up with you. And as soon as I can get those grey chairs from him, we can shoot Mandy’s house in Roscoe Village. Stay tuned on that, and thanks again.

Nancy with Bon Brise Design was a joy to work with. I live in a small space that was not being used to it's fullest, and was a bit dated. Nancy came over, listened to what I liked and what I could afford to do, and provided me with several recommendations and options. She took time to understand my personal tastes and we ended up with a series of rooms that are more comfortable, stylish, and usable! When I am ready to tackle the next room I will certainly call Nancy at Bon Brise!

Comment from Bon Brise Design, Inc.:

Hello Renae!

I hope you’re well. I just revisited the glowing testimonial you wrote on my Houzz profile and I wanted to formally thank you! I, too, am looking forward to helping you tackle the next room on your list!

I hope to see you soon at a sailing event.

All the best,
N

We have worked with Bon Brise Design for several years. I was impressed with Nancy's sense of style. She has a talent for matching furniture and understanding how the overall design coordinates - all with an eye towards maintaining the budget. Her project management skills are excellent and she has a good sense of the sequence in which activities should happen. She is a pleasure to work with.

Nancy was invaluable in helping modify the layout of the new office space, as well as designing and selecting all furnishings to fit the space, and coordinating with contractors to ensure the furniture would fit perfectly in the space. She delivered an office appearance that makes talented individuals want to work here, and clients want to hire us. It's perfect!
