One Room At A Time

bout

For over 25 years, Maria Nanamaker has worked with clients along the Connecticut shoreline and beyond to achieve their custom design goals. Great design begins with a comprehensive understanding of each homeowner's unique needs and expectations. With a keen eye for detail and a penchant for personal touches, Maria guides her clients through every phase of the design process with personalized care to ensure a custom solution for their vision. Her focus is on helping the customer define a style that reflects their tastes and personality, develop a budget to meet their needs, and navigate through the choices to create one 'perfect' room at a time. 

​

With a vast network of long-cultivated relationships with local vendors, artisans and technicians, Maria's integration within the community extends her ability to create a tailor-made design experience for each individual or family. Along with her personalized design services, Maria collaborates with realtors and home sellers as a home stager, preparing and enhancing properties to engage the largest potential audience for a speedy sale. Regardless of the timing or budget, Maria transforms each property into a buyer's must-have with a custom staging plan that makes the space appear larger, brighter and more desirable.

Maria earned a dual degree at Fairfield University. She lives in Guilford with her husband, daughter and two cocker spaniels. In her free time she loves traveling to new places, collecting shells by the beach, and cooking new recipes for her friends and family.
