Nina Magon Studio

What Nina Magon Studio does

Nina Magon Studio is a privately held, founder-led luxury interior design firm headquartered in Houston, Texas, operating under the legal entity Contour Interior Design, Inc. Founded in 2008 and rebranded to the Nina Magon Studio name in 2025, the firm delivers bespoke interior design services across four core verticals: luxury residential, hospitality, commercial, and culinary. Its 15+ person team — anchored by founder Nina Magon, a Managing Director, a Creative Director, and a bench of Senior, Associate, and Junior Designers — executes full-scope engagements ranging from concept development and space planning through custom millwork, FF&E procurement, design management, and final installation. Project fees typically fall between $100,000 and $600,000+, and the firm manages over $500 million in cumulative project value per Forbes coverage, with active engagements across the United States and the Middle East, notably in Houston, Austin, Miami, Palm Beach, New York, Los Angeles, and Dubai.

The studio monetizes through two streams: professional services fees on design engagements and licensing royalties from branded product collections. The collections portfolio — including the Dekton Onirika surfaces collaboration with Cosentino, the sculptural lighting line with Studio M Lighting, the Venust rug capsule with Sahrai, designer wallcoverings with Wall & Deco, the Pavus decorative accessories line, and a furniture debut with Universal Furniture — extends the brand into product categories distributed through partner showrooms. Go-to-market is consultative and referral-driven, supplemented by extensive earned media in Architectural Digest, Elle Décor, Forbes, and Vogue Living, a lifestyle blog and sub-brands under the NM Lifestyle and MAGON umbrellas, and a presence at premier trade events including Design Miami, Maison&Objet (where Nina Magon is the 2025 US Ambassador), NeoCon, and Milan Design Week. The firm has no external institutional investors, no disclosed funding rounds, and no parent company.
