WHO WE ARE

NM Design Studio works with boutique hospitality, property and lifestyle brands who want their brand and their environment to feel like one world. Based in Edinburgh. Working across Scotland and beyond.

  • Most businesses build their brand, their interiors, and their website in separate conversations, with separate agencies, at separate times. The result is usually beautiful in parts, and quietly disconnected as a whole.

    We take a different approach. As a founder-led studio, we bring branding, interior design, and digital presence into one joined-up process. So whether a guest walks through your door, lands on your website, or sees your logo on a menu, everything speaks the same language.

    We work with founders, developers, and operators who care deeply about how their business is perceived. The ones who know that the right environment doesn’t just look good, it changes how people feel, what they spend, and whether they come back.

THE BRAND RESIDENCY

Your customers experience your brand as one story. So why are you building it in pieces?

Most businesses invest in branding, interiors, and digital separately. The result is beautiful - but disconnected. The Brand Residency is a 10–16 week immersive partnership where we step inside your business, audit every touchpoint, and realign brand, space, and digital so your business feels cohesive, confident, and unmistakably yours.

When everything speaks the same language, your brand stops feeling like a collection of assets - and starts feeling like a world.

Launching Autumn 2026. Limited spaces.
