Job: Founder of Nesrine Interiors

Origin: Tunis, Tunisia

HanaHaus Location: Newport Beach

-------------------------------------

Nesrine Ben Brahim is the Founder of Nesrine Interiors which is a full-service Interior Design Firm. Born and raised in Tunisia, Nesrine moved to the US in 2016 to follow her dreams and pursue studies in Interior Architectural Design. She grew up surrounded by the Mediterranean design and laid-back lifestyle. Her approach to design is to always be inspired by her client’s vision and dreams while allowing them to express themselves in the most natural ways and guide them toward the right decision. Today, she is working on various exciting projects, all using “natural color” schemes.

  • a new house in Dana Point

  • a restoration project in Newport Beach

Her vision is to find a piece or a whole project to use the most organic and natural sense of community. While back home this summer in Tunis, she visited a few villages and met artists using natural clay to create pottery. This pottery had all been designed and molded with natural clay by women whose skills have just been recognized by UNESCO. Nesrine’s next goal is to launch a Design Studio with a shop that sells pottery from her Tunisian heritage.

Why do you like working at HanaHaus? 🏠

“I love being inspired by the environment in HanaHaus. With all the young and energetic people around me at HanaHaus. I enjoy the view and at the same time, I can get creative work done. Every year on my birthday, I set a goal for the year ahead. Last year, I was sitting in Open Seating (high table facing the water) and set the goal to be at HanaHaus every day until I become my own boss.”
